Poor Quality

17 September 2012

Verified Purchase

The overall quality is very poor for the price. It is of cheap plastic and the metal parts that are supposed to give security are low grade mild steel. Hardened steel is what you get on a medium budget (i.e. Yale) padlock; whereas mild steel is the kind they make pound-shop ironmongery from. A pair of bolt croppers would pass through the staple like a hot knife through butter. Having to attach it to the bike-frame with cable ties makes it easy for someone to cut those ties and with a bit of jiggery-pokery could get the back wheel off.

That said It's great for parking outside the cafe/corner shop or friends house. I have a low value bike for local hops, I certainly wouldn't use it to leave my bike for extended periods at work. I use a proper D lock for that. For my purposes it works fine but I just wish that vendors would be honest enough to let people know that this is not a serious security item. After seeing the quality I would not spend any more money on the extra chain or cable. The idea of a plug in cable does appeal, but the place where it plugs into looks as substandard as the rest of the device. I will stick to my original loop end cable passed through the staple. This will also make it harder to get a bolt cutter in there too.

As this really is little more than a toy I think insurance companies may have reservations about paying out if the bike is stolen too.
If you need security go for a decent product like a D lock,

Handy lock system

7 August 2013

Verified Purchase

Needed to get a rated lock so that our cycle insurance was valid and did not like the look of the bulkier chain locks as these have the additional issue of having to find a way to carry them.
With the AXA Defender this is not an issue as it stays fitted to your cycle and always ready to use without any fuss. I have also brought the additional click in cable to go with the locking system so the cycle can be locked to cycle rack.
Please note that this did not come with a fitting kit, so you will need to buy this separately, hence not giving it 5 Stars.

Quality lock you cannot forget.

This is highly rated in Europe and I can see why. Very solid indeed. Mine was a bit fiddly to fit spacing wise, but now it's on, it is brill.

Love these locks

2 August 2012

This lock must be as break-proof as anything you can find anywhere - and unlike a chain lying on the ground, the thief can't stamp on his bolt croppers to get extra leverage.

Every bicycle in Holland has them as standard - and has had various improving versions of them for over 40 years. (Quite often used in conjunction with a "D" lock, however).

Why are they so brilliant? Because they're so easy - never leave your bicycle unlocked outside a shop again.

I'm currently using one on each of my bicycles, with a cable lock and a locking alarm padlock.

The only thing to mention is that the newest fittings, worm-screw tightening straps, are not very good. You may need friction material (eg strips of inner-tube rubber) to stop the lock sliding slightly on the paintwork each time you open it with a satisfying cllunk. Bike shops fit these locks by driving self-tapping screws through the holes provided into the bike frame. But I'm not going to do that on my aluminium framed LandRover.
