Review: Great lock, extremely easy to use and strong. - It has a high build quality and is very sturdy. The lock is not finicky, it’s smooth and easy to lock and unlock. It is a deterrent and has protected my bikes on busy streets. It’s not too heavy and long enough to fit around even large bikes.
Review: BEST BIKE LOCK - I've been using this for my hybrid bike basically leaving it for about a few hours at a time for college. The lock is pretty beefy and is in fact beefier than some of the bike racks I've used. It is pretty thick and is reasonably lightweight for the protection it provides. It is even recommended by well renowned lock pickers on Youtube, such as Lockpickinglawyer, as it has a very secure locking mechanism. The shackle's rectangular design makes it hard for boltcutters to hold onto. I also chose this lock because it seems to withstand a lot of force before you can break it with a jack. I use this lock alongside a cable to secure the front wheels and a rotor brake lock. Sometimes I even use another U lock with it if I'm going to leave it for longer. The USH bracket has been really helpful in carrying it around especially if you don't want to carry it on a backpack as I do because it hurts my back after a while. So far, I haven't found any cons to using this lock. Keep in mind that locks are only a deterrent. A determined bike thief would get through any lock. Although it is not on the affordable price bracket for locks, it is surely a worthy investment if you want to keep your bike.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great lock, extremely easy to use and strong.
*by J***F on 7 July 2025*

It has a high build quality and is very sturdy. The lock is not finicky, it’s smooth and easy to lock and unlock. It is a deterrent and has protected my bikes on busy streets. It’s not too heavy and long enough to fit around even large bikes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BEST BIKE LOCK
*by A***N on 10 January 2020*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality lock that's not too heavy. Works with Eazy KF.
*by Y***Y on 30 April 2021*

NB: This comes with the USH bracket, rather than the smaller, slicker and more convenient Eazy KF bracket. To use the Eazy KF bracket, you'll need to order "Abus 9210 Shackle Clamp" and Eazy KF bracket. To fit the clamp onto the lock, trim away some of the rubber coating on the U shackle. The Eazy KF bracket allows you to clip the lock onto the frame and press a button to release, whereas the USH bracket requires you to unlock the lock to remove. The lock seems solid and the mechanism works well. This is the shorter 230mm version, a longer 300mm version is also available. You do need to turn the key to lock rather than the D section clipping in. Lightweight for the security rating which is Art Level 3 and Sold Secure Gold. At around 1.5kgs it is half a kilo less than the Kryptonite equivalent. One star off for value for money. At £70 it is expensive, but if your bike is worth it, you can't get much better for the weight. Please press the 'Helpful' button if this review is useful for you!
