Customer reviews
Super strong lock with onboard security
by .. D. Herd (Philly)
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.
Great, great locks
by .. Carlos Sosa Martinez ()
I got a couple of these locks, thinking they were on the expensive side, since they were only locks, but I come to find out that they are more than that. The longs themselves are heavy solid, almost even descouraging to look at (if you were a thief)They are long enough to go around big trees in case you don't find a proper place. They come with a set of 5 keys, and one of them even has a LED light so you can open your lock at night. They also come with a good warranty and the company, in case you loose your keys. (comon' there is 5 of them, I am sure you won't keep them in the same place) there is a small card with a number, you can send that number to the company, and they will replace your keys for free. it is just great. At first they seemed a little stiff and I had a hard time bending it around stuff. But with time they lock became more flexible and maleable, right now it takes me less than 20 seconds to secure my bike to whatever. I am studying in a university in mexico, and bike theft is the order of the day, These locks are exactly what you need in such cases, or if you want to protect your bike. Note: these locks are really heavy, not recommended if you're going biking for a long time or trail. they will tire you out. But if you're like, a student that will like his bike to be in the same place when I blink, and be confident that no one will steal it. buy it. These are simply the best locks.
Great lock, backed by solid support
by .. P. Antoniades (Brooklyn, NY United States)
I have had a Rottweiler lock for over five years now, and will agree with the two reviews above mine - this is a fantastic, well-made lock (albeit heavy). I haven't ever wanted for a frame carrier - I usually sling it over my shoulder or in my bike bag.
I park my bike outside year-round, and three years of that got to wear on my lock - it was pretty hard to get the key in (as the reviewer above noted). I have since found out (via product documentation :-/ ) that a few drops of oil in the key slot cures this, but the first time I called the company.
Three years of New York winters, I was prepared for "get a new lock". Instead they said "our new locks are better at handling this - we'll send you one free".
That was two years ago. I recommend these locks to everyone, and nobody's complained (or had to call the company). But good to know they are so responsive if you do!
OMG this will deter anyone
by .. MPZ (largo fl)
I bought this based on previous reviews, but, when i got it i was even more pleasantly surprised at how thick this thing was. the one and only thing that i dont like and its not a major issue, just my personal preference is that you can not just take the key out and leave it unlocked, it has to get locked. but, then that is also a good feature because you never have to worry about whether you feel like it is locked properly as long as you have your keys. I do however wish it was about another foot longer to wrap around wider trees. Im not sure what im going to do with 5 keys and a key code card in case i lose 5 keys, but, like the fact that should that ever happen, i pretty much have this lock for a lifetime, probably longer than the bike itself. But overall, think this is a great product and well worth the money. definitely a bargain for the money!!!
I have confidence in this lock!

This is a hefty lock! I commute to work daily and will be leaving this lock on the rack at work. It is stiff, but has some give to the cable, and a swivel lock head. So,(while not easy) it is doable to wrap around a rack or fence. I have not had problems with the key/lock being sticky, but it took a little practice to get used to the feel of it; and also had I some frustration in getting the key out of the lock, until I was reminded that it had to be locked to remove the key. I am confident that this chunky bike lock will do the job for me. It's a very good price for an excellent lock.
