Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have purchased two of these and love them, so much so that a friend was looking for a lock and decided to get one too. They work great, provide professional level security and still have the flexibility to get around the odd shaped things we have to lock to in a city. Here's the P/C.
Pros:
-Super strong locking mechanism.
-Lots of keys
-Rubber coated so it won't scratch your pretty bike
-Tempered steel jacketed cable to add another level of protection (this thing is great, the braided steel rope has scale like links around it to reduce cutting and sawing attacks)
-Pick-resistant lock
-Flexibility and enough length to get around big lamp posts or a couple bikes.
-non-conventional so thieves with car jacks and crow bars might not be familiar with how to get into them.
-you can sling it over your shoulder (or possibly around your waist).
Cons
-Weight... a lot of it.
-The anti-pick lock makes it really hard to use, you have to develop tricks to get the key in and out, though it's probably worth it versus getting a new bike
-No bike mount. This is crazy. A lot of other products by OnGuard have mounts, but this series of locks doesn't. It weighs a ton in your pack and can't be clipped to the bike. This is hopefully something that will change.
-Cheap plastic pieces. the face of the lock and the short sleeve at the end of the cable (both cosmetic, not functional) are easily broken
-Keys are huge. They have this big M feel to them, taking up a lot of room on a ring. Come on people, let's not self-aggrandize, let's make it user friendly.
Overall: A- I could get by with everything else if there was a bike mount.
