Excellent lock, big, heavy and strong.

- Remco, 14 November, 2023

The lock works smoothly and feels very solid. It is large so you can secure your bike frame to a post or tree. While it is a large and heavy lock, it offers a high level of security for your bike.

Pros & Cons

Mounting bracket included
Opens and closes smoothly
Very strong lock
Large and heavy to carry
Mounting bracket does not fit my bike

Very strong and relatively light lock, but attachment uncomfortable.

- Mehrdad, 11 November, 2020

I bought this lock for my gravel bike (as well as Pitstoppers from Pitlock) because I wanted a solid lock to use it occasionally as a commuter bike (in Amsterdam). This lock came highly recommended by a review website (thebestbikelock.com). It is a strong lock made of a stronger type of metal which allows it to keep the weight down but still gave it an ART rating of 3 stars. The size is large enough to be versatile enough (smaller shackle locks mean there are few objects you can lock your bike to). The only drawback: the bracket provided to secure it to the bike can only be attached to round tubes 15-36 mm in diameter. On my bike, that means I can only attach it in one way which means it gets slightly in the way while cycling (see photo). NB any lock can be broken open if a thief has enough time and materials (e.g. a grinder).

Pros & Cons

Large enough
Plastic exterior
Relatively light
Strong (art-3)
Difficult to attach properly to bicycle
Not as versatile as a chain lock

Very secure and solid lock. Mounting options to the frame are not very good only way it will fit to a cannondale hybrid is in an awkward position for removal.
