Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Learn more how customers reviews work on AmazonCustomers say
Customers find the bike lock well-made with a strong steel cable and appreciate its security features, particularly for protecting expensive bicycles and deterring thieves. They consider it good value for money and say it works well, though opinions are mixed regarding its length, with some saying it's long enough to secure two bikes while others find it too short. The lock's weight and ease of use receive mixed feedback - while some find it quite heavy and easy to use, others say it's too bulky and cumbersome.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 February 2025Style Name: High SecuritySize Name: U-LockVerified PurchaseThis bike lock is excellent. Not only does it have a solid secure rating (silver albeit not gold) it is fairly lightweight and actually operable with one hand! The one thing I wasn’t thinking about was the way it attaches to the bike. The system that Yale has is excellent. A simple twist and you can pop it on a simple twist and you can pop it off. I used to be the person who would be doing up their bike and somebody else will come along and do their bike and be gone and I’m still there but now I’m the one who’s fast it’s a great system. I just hope I never have to have any of it tested by a thief.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 February 2023Style Name: Maximum SecuritySize Name: Chain Lock - 1800mmVerified PurchaseIt's difficult to rate a lock until there is a theft attempt.
Here is a quick review:
Pros:
- Cheap
- Thick chain links
- Compact shackle
- Supplied with numerous keys
Cons:
- Heavy (obviously considering the length)
- Chain fabric cover is secured by hooks and loop bands. These are not very strong and got torn after a few weeks of use
- Shackle cylinder needs regular lubrication for smooth operation
- Chain links are a bit tight for the shackle to go through easily
Overall I'm happy with the product and I think it can be a great thief deterrent
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 July 2020Style Name: Maximum SecuritySize Name: U-LockVerified PurchaseFantastic lock for the price. The rubber coating is a godsend and really stops your bike from getting scratched up. Build quality is fantastic, gold secure rating. It is a kilo and a bit but when mounted on the bike I can't really tell any difference when I ride it.
Please note the little plastic thing on the U bend of the lock that is used to attach to the mount on the bike frame, this is not in the correct position when you purchase it, there's a little screw for a hex key so you can slide it up and down the bend into the position you need it in, but you need a really small hex key, almost precision size, which you're unlikely to have in lying around in your house. It is quite smaller than the ones you use for furniture, I wish I could tell you the exact size.
I'm really struggling to find faults, but if I absolutely had to, the battery compartment on the little lamp on the key is a touch flimsy. I think that's about it.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 February 2023Style Name: Maximum SecuritySize Name: U-Lock with cableVerified PurchaseThis lock was initially brilliant, very sturdy and robust looking. I left my bike outside with the lock on it and was fine until 1 month in. I went to lock the bike but then could not unlock it, lucky It was locked near my house so I went to get the other keys to try them and nothing none of them could turn the lock to get it free it was completely jammed up. I was very frustrated and it took me over 30 minuets to get it free and looked like I was stealing my own bike. This lock is from Yale, a big security manufacturer and cannot even make a decent bike lock. I had to pour water on it to finally lubricated it to get it free. I thought that this was a 1-time thing but the next time the lock refused to come undone to even lock up the bike leaving my bike open to be stollen. I final got it to get undone and when I tired to unlock the bike again the same problem. Took me 1 hour and loads of wd40 but when It came off I could see the rust dripping out which is not good. The key is also completely stuck and will not come undone rendering the lock useless what a waste of money.
