Flimsy and Easily Broken

As a result of my tests, I determined that this chain is not worth the investment. While it may be advertised as sturdy and durable, it is actually flimsy and easily broken. The only redeeming quality is that it is lightweight, but that hardly outweighs the negative aspects. Do yourself a favor and invest in a more reliable chain for your cycling needs.

Pros
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Flimsy and easily broken

It Won't Break

A few months ago my bike was stolen and I replaced my little cable lock with this monster. It's heavy, but my new bike is safe. How do I know that this Evolution lock was broken and the lock would not unlock? Panic! But I called Kryptonite support and explained the situation. They advised me to find a locksmith to open it. He pays for the services and sends me a new lock. The locksmith had to use a dremel to cut the lock, which took about 10 minutes and made a lot of noise. The kryptonite cameโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New York Network with Kryptonite EV Series 4 Disc Lock
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Sturdy but not easy to wear

I ride my e-bike to work a few days a week and needed a lock to prevent anyone from hacking my bike snaps. I've had 2 U-lock bikes stolen in the past so I was looking for something bigger and better. I also needed something that would work on custom sized bike racks. The chain draws attention when you lock yourself in a bike rack. It's heavy and quite noisy, and it rings when you install it. People regularly comment that it looks beautiful and durable. I like it. BUT it's annoying to carryโ€ฆ

Pros
  • All-weather nylon jacket allows for compact packing and protects bike surface
Cons
  • Expensive
