Review on πŸ”’ Kryptonite Keeper 5s Disc Lock - Black Chrome, One Size (000877) by Sam Anez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

One lasted 3.5 years

I park my bikes outside under a canopy, always with a disc lock. A kryptonite disc lock lasted from 2015 to 2019, then the key wouldn't open it unless I fiddled with it for very long. WD40 helped for a year, then stopped. At this point I replaced the lock. Putting the key in these locks correctly takes concentration. The disc is slanted and you're leaning forward, so it's not an ideal situation. Take the time to ensure the key is properly and fully inserted in the lock before turning the key. And sometimes use some WD40 or graphite in the lock. I assume, that this will prolong the lifespan of the hard disk lock. I've been happy since I was 3.5 years old but felt like I could keep the lock a little longer and maybe get more life out of it. If it doesn't unlock, it's an uncomfortable feeling.

Pros
  • High test results for grip and durability
Cons
  • Disappear
