Does not Lock

On: 2010-01-27

If you came here to buy a bike lock, turn around now; here be demons. Although they give you three keys, they only give you one lock, which incidentally does not actually unlock. If you do want to lock something and leave it there to the end of time, then buy this lock. If you want to utilize the aforementioned thing, then dont buy this scam.

Great lock

What I would think would be the best advertisement for this lock happened two nights ago. I work in a place late at night, actually heard someone moving the chain link fence that the bicycle was locked to. Heard a few unkind words when they finally noticed the lock and decided to go elsewhere.

One note, the holder for the lock isnt very durable so I wouldnt count on it lasting. In a few weeks after purchase, the holder started disintegrating and wouldnt secure the lock any longer. However, I dont feel that the lock holder is a very important part of the lock, the lock has to secure your bicycle which this lock does.

Very Good Lock

Lock is very easy to use, it came with 3 keys so Im able to confidently and securely use it anywhere. I would have given it 5 - stars except I had to mount it on the top frame of my mountain bike because the insert that attaches the lock to the bracket is on the u part of the lock, see products photo. The weight of the lock would not allow me to mount it any other way without it flopping to one side of the bike. The insert for the bracket that could have resolved this only made the brackets screws unusable, it separated the brackets ends so far apart the screws could not span the distance. This is easily solvable by getting screws the same diameter as the ones that came with the lock from your local hardware store, just measure the gap and get them to cover that distance.
