Review on Kryptonite KryptoFlex Bike ๐Ÿ”’ Security Cable with Looping Feature by Tyrone Lee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Special cable that is excellent for certain purposes.

I have a heavy U-lock (Abus Granit Plus 640) that secures my bike frame and rear wheel to the bike rack. I also have a quick release seat. I run this KryptoFlex 525 cable through one of the posts on the bottom of the seat, then thread one loop through the other loop and then loop through to the U-lock. This cable is also narrow enough to fit through my helmet so I don't have to carry it around. A second short but heavier cable is used in the same way to attach the quick release front wheel to the U-lock. Someone with a good wire cutter who knows what they're doing could probably get through that KryptoFlex 525 in a few minutes, but get a used helmet and seat? It deters petty crime, not professional thieves; understand what you are buying. Small and light, the KryptoFlex 525 is also used with a second short cable to hang the U-lock between the seatstays and rear bike rack while riding, eliminating the need to carry the U-lock with brackets. on the down tube. In short, it's perfect for what I need.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • I won't say anything
