Lightweight but a little uncomfortable

It's lightweight and I can put it in my bike bag. I can hardly get around the front wheel and down tube when I lock the tubular steel bike carrier. The angle formed by the long links is too narrow. Need another short link to make blocking easier.

Pros
  • Bike Locks
Cons
  • Modern

Easy to use but not without flaws

In general I like the design of the lock better than other folding lock designs. The hinges are much more secure, good steel is used and the locking mechanism and construction is solid. The downsides are that it's only four lengths instead of five or six. This reduces overall usability and compatibility with the mechanisms it can be bound to, but it's still a great lock.

Pros
  • Sports and Outdoors
Cons
  • Can't remember

Great product

Very happy with this lock. I can think of 3 uses: 1. A single lock for a relatively inexpensive commuter bike: It's lighter than other folding locks like the Abus Bordo and arguably more secure (much thicker shackle and hinges look less vulnerable compared to the nut cutter). This is probably just as resistant to AS angle grinders as the comparable clip lock, but with the benefit of being easier to maneuver around bars. Here's how I use it for quick errands.2. Great extra lock for bikes: itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sport
Cons
  • Not everything fits
