Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is great for securing the frame and one tire. Bends nicely to fit in the bag on my rear bike rack. Works great in combination with a u-lock to secure the front tire.

Cable is strong and long enough to reach around my tires. Not your average cable lock. Macho cable for my camper gear and bikes.



Cons

Gone less than one hour. Secondary cable at best. Good deterrent elsewhere perhaps.

Quality


I gave it 5 stars because it has held up nicely rain or shine combined with the ulock i bought to go with it


Goes well with the kryptonite newu evolution mini5


Thieves move on to the next bike with the cheapo knockoffs


The quality looks excellent and it is just large enough to secure my jacket and helmet

Competitiveness


Perfect length to lock both wheels in combination with a ulock


Originally got this to lock up the back wheel of my bike to the front with a ulock


This is enough to make taking your front tire inconvenient but it is not nearly as secure as a solid steel ulock


I lock my front wheel and frame with an onguard brute std ulock

    I wanted a smaller wire bike lock just for casually keeping our bikes together out on the playa


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However this one is good if you are securing the frame and one tire


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One look at these and wouldbe thieves would steal everything else that this is not holding secure


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The 4 foot is only good for securing a front wheel


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Get the longer one if you can only get the u lock on the frame and need to secure both wheels


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Bottom line is that this is only a deterrent for quickgrab type thieves


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is very thick and would take a lot of strength and time to cut through it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This cable is braided from very fine strands of wire which would make it pretty tough to cut with a typical bolt cutter
