Ideal for locking the bike anyway.
Convenient to use

Handy lock
Handy to keep your bike from being too easy a prey for casual thieves during stops. It is not a real anti-theft lock, with a bit of pliers it is easy to cut the cable but it provides an extra action/delay for occasional thieves when you do not have your bike in sight. Small, light, flexible and therefore easy to carry in saddlebag/jersey pocket/etc. You can easily personalise the standard code yourself, the explanation is on the cardboard packaging.

Great lock for quickly securing your bike to something
Used during my bikepacking trip. Handy to have when walking into a shop or having a bite to eat. Is not so sturdy that I want to keep my bike out of sight for a long time. Closing it was sometimes a bit awkward, it would have been better if the nipple was at the top.

Excellent lock!
Fine lock for the purpose I used it for (extra security bikes on bike rack). As a standalone lock probably not enough security.

Lightweight, light protection
Does the job well of keeping the bike in place long enough to attract the attention if someone applies something more serious than nail clippers to them

Great lock
Is it a very sturdy lock with seal? No. Is it a good affordable lock that is light and small enough to carry around and protect your carbon steed from theft while you are 10 yards away drinking coffee and eating apple pie? Yes.

Top for a quick pit stop
Small handy lock. Don't leave it too long though. A nail file will cut it in half in 5 minutes.

Fine for the purpose
Great lock for short protection of your bike. Easy to take with you on a bike ride (60 grams), so fill your water bottle or eat apple pie on a terrace without fear. For this purpose this lock is perfect. The lock seems to me not suitable for long-term protection out of sight, if you are looking for that, you really should buy something else. I am happy with this purchase. Does feel a bit fragile, but couldn't get it open with some force. Set own code I did not find complicated, is doable for the average person.
