Review on πŸ”’ High Security Bike Lock: 6 Feet Coiled Cable Lock with Keys & Mounting Bracket, 1/2 Inch Diameter, Heavy Duty for Outdoor Bicycle Protection by Scott Rao

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Accidentally changed the combination

The main body uses a hardwired thick cable which makes it difficult to pull through the bike's wheels and a bit difficult to store. I was willing to endure it. above as a compromise for the proposed security, but another problem arose. I have found that if the code rings are rotated before the end is fully inserted into the lock, the combination is effectively changed. The rigidity of the cable made partial insertion a real risk unless enough force was used to connect the elements. I figured out what was going on before I fully inserted things, but I couldn't guess what would come out of the new combination. Since it was partially seated, I was able to free my bike with a hacksaw via the lock's open insert. Decided to change the lock and key.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Lots of things
