The lock broke when I was using it on the beach. :(

Agree with everyone who says the mechanics are broken! I needed an accessible lock so one person couldn't just take our bike to the beach. We rode about 2 miles to the beach and hanging out and then we drove home and the lock didn't work, the bikes are locked on the bike rack and not gone (i think it works for basic security) so what do we do, drive back home and just cut the lock with wire cutters (with pincers)... but unless you have a car big enough to fit the bikes, you still have a…

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • So far so good

Very happy with the lock. The mount is a waste of time.

Nice and easy to use lock. I would give it 5 stars but was dying to keep it on the bike without having to stow it in a pannier. I only have a small bag for the necessary tools (BV Bicycle Strap-On Saddle Bag / Seat Bag). So having a useless mount makes a big difference to me. Maybe not for you. so .Very easy to use combination balls. The numbers are easy to see, nice and round The frame mount is a joke. Don't even bother - IMHO. The mount is all plastic, including the hardware cutouts, so…

Lasted a month or less, only used a couple of times

I was very fortunate to be able to lock my daughter's bike in a way that wasn't really securely locked. I wrapped it around the handlebars instead of locking it properly, which I've never done before. I was lucky because the lock didn't open. From what I've researched, combination locks can go bad if dirt or sand gets into them. I don't know how that could have happened. We didn't ride in sandy/muddy areas and the bike lock was always properly stowed away and kept in a bin. No problem until…

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Not sure

Best Features/Benefits: My favorite thing about this lock.

Best Features/Benefits: What I love most about this lock is the combination feature. It's so simple and easy to remember. I also like how the numbers on the padlock rotate and click into place clearly. There is a small question as to what number you are on or if you have numbers for a toggle switch. Worst Features/Benefits: Is the spool too tight on the chain when you take it out of the box? That's so petty because there really isn't anything to complain about with this lock. Build Quality…

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Almost never

Good Bike Lock Repeller

Easy to use, not heavy, good bike lock repeller. Let's face it, this is clearly not the most secure bike lock, but when you look at locks like this, it's clearly not your primary concern. I bought it mainly to deter pesky opportunists aka thieves. I live in a fairly small town which is also fairly safe with a large bike community so most people respect each other's property. but children will be tempted, and so will adults. With a large number of tourists visiting during the summer months of…

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Newer model could be selected

Etronic or Masterlock? Comparison of a 6ft 8mm cable lock.

I purchased this Etronic cable lock and master lock with the same specs (see below as listed on the Revain website).
