‘Minimum’ security for your bike against opportunistic thieves when whipping into the boulangerie for a baguette on tour or inhaling a brew after an evening session at the bike park. It tips the scales at 230 grams. Cheapest travel and contents insurance you’ll ever buy.
This is the second Abus lock we’ve bought through Ground Effect. Great locks, easy to use, don’t crash about due to the covering on the chain.
I bought this to be a light lock, that was easy to carry in a carrier bag side pocket for locking the bike (to itself or a slim pole) at somewhere like a cafe. For that it ticks all the boxes. Not the lock for your mega dollar bike all days anywhere. Do check the specs since it will not make it around something like a lamp post. You will most likely need to order the fun colours - black seems to be in stock most places. You need to want a key not a combination.
Brilliant little lock for piece of mind whilst grabbing a coffee on my way to work
Gets the job done. Stops the opportunist while Re supplying in a trip. Not too heavy and can fit in your pocket.
Nice to have a flexible lock that will scrunch up in a bag or round the handle bars rather than the awkward springy locks. Good for when you do a quick stop but not long enough to loop through wheels and frame on to a post, but hey...it is great for town and around
