Quality Bike Lock May 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
attachment that connects it to your bike is hard to get on... but i decided to just hang it around my seat, so its not a big deal. Definitely a quality lock tho, never had any problems fitting it around fences, signs or parking meters. And it seems VERY secure.
Heavy, but worth the weight February 8, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This lock is a beast, but you can throw it on your bike and feel safe about it. I lock my bike up a lot in downtown DC, so I wanted a serious lock to protect my lovely bike. It has a good sized U-bolt which allows you to lock up to just about anything that is fixed to the ground as well as through one of your wheels. The lighted key is really nice for getting into your lock in the dark. I personally don't use the bike mount, so I can't really comment on that.
Remember, no lock is full proof. If a bike thief really wants your bike and has enough time alone with it, he will get your bike. That being said, there is only one lock with a higher security rating than this one. Locks are a deterrent, and with this lock a bike thief is most likely going to move onto an easier target.
Heavy, but it works! January 7, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's a lot heavier than what I thought. We've not used it yet but when we go out of town for rides it will certainly come in handy. I do trust it and that's what counts.
Solid Lock December 28, 2007 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is a solid lock that doesn't add so much weight and inconvenience that you will begrudge the security it provides. As other reviewers have said, it fits well around all sorts of bike stands but still fits reasonably well on a bike or backpack. Though they do emphasize the ease of mounting these locks on your bike, remember that you will sacrifice the water bottle holders if you do that (most likely). Also, the insurance requires that you jump through several hoops (before the bike is stolen, mind you). If you don't think that you are going to have your bike appraised and fill out the paperwork, then don't factor the insurance into your purchasing decision.
Great Lock December 22, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a somewhat heavy lock, but I live in a relatively high-crime area so I'd rather carry around an extra pound than have my bike stolen. This lock might be overkill in a smaller city, but for protecting your bike in a larger city this lock is perfect.
If weight is of high concern if might be better to invest in some locking axles and buy a smaller lock just to lock the frame; however if you're considering buying the smaller version of this lock be advised that it is not much lighter, as the weight comes mostly from the locking mechanism and not the U-shaped bar.
