- Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2024Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseOne of the better U-Locks on the market. You can even use it on your 20x4 or 20x3 fat tires to lock it directly to the bike rack.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2020Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseThe plastic coupling to fit to bike frame didn't necessarily fit my bike all that well but there were other placement options. I also find the bike harder to lock with the plastic piece still fitted to it as it tends to slide towards the locking mechanism and providing the fit it needs to close the lock properly. that said there is nothing wrong with this long. I got the longest model. I recommend that. It gives you extra wiggle room with tricky parking situations. Also great options for insurance and key replacement with kryptonite
- Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2022Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseThis lock works great but it's a heavy lock and if I didn't own a ebike I wouldn't give it 5 stars. Easy to store on the bike with the bracket provided.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2024Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseLong u lock. Pretty thin. Not sure how easy it is to cut through. Hoping it’s not. Key lock gets stuck sometimes. But I do like how long it is
- Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2023Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseFits beautifully in places that need a bit more length such as when I lock together my font wheel to my frame to my helmet to a sign post. It can be done because this is long enough.
And I’m comfortable using this to secure my Nishiki on the streets of Los Angeles which is infamous for aggressive bike thieves. A bike of mine was stolen in broad daylight locked by a cable lock to a street sign. Clipped! This lock by kryptonite will not be clipped. And thieves have great difficulty breaking or prying it apart.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2024Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseNow I don't use it to lock up a bike I used it to lock my ladder on my work truck and it works flawless
- Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2024Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified Purchase**Update: I should have seen this coming..Lock stopped working 2 weeks past return deadline..First thing I noticed upon receiving it was how very flimsy(prob a knockoff) it felt and that the key was something you'd find in a child's toy. Additionally, the key slot was really flimsy and it wasn't long before I started having issues with it not opening/locking on first few attempts..but it always finally did. Should have returned it the first time it started happening as it slowly got worse and worse until today when the lock mechanism failed completely.
Anyway, this is significant as the last thing anyone wants is to not be able to open their U lock when your bike/scooter is locked to a stand or sign post..big time bummer.
For now on, with these kind of locks, if the key looks sketchy, I'm sending it back...
**********************************************************************************************************************
The size is fine and I really like the way it connects to my Scooter..audible snap and push button release..very cool. The only issue I've experienced is that the key slot seems a bit ragged for a product coming from this vanguard brand..so a few times after inserting key it didn't open but I think that was due to the U part pulling on the bar that key slot is part of causing pressure on it. After calming down(yeah, not being able to open your lock is stressful..lol) I made sure to push the U firmly into the base bar and it opened fine....

Eros La SpinaReviewed in Italy on June 20, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Lucchetto ad U: sicurezza e robustezza in primo piano!
Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseOttimo lucchetto ad U per bici!
Ho acquistato questo lucchetto per una bici elettrica di un discreto valore, non volendo ricorrere a soluzioni più economiche e allo stesso tempo meno sicure.
Robusto, di buona fattura che trasmette fin da subito qualità.
Sicuramente lasciare la bici con un lucchetto simile offre la tranquillità di parcheggiarla come maggiore serenità.
Forse un po' pesante ed ingombrante, infatti ho preferito non montare il supporto, bensì riporlo dentro alle borse.
PRO ✅ : robusto, solido, di qualità
CONTRO ❌ : un po' pesante ed ingombrante

Chris R.Reviewed in Germany on October 29, 2020
4.0 out of 5 stars Sicheres Fahrradschloss mit etwas hakeligem Schloss und schlechter Beschreibung
Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseIch habe das Schloss gekauft, da es einige Vorzüge mit sich brachte. Es sieht wertig aus, ist wetterbeständig und hat eine lange aber stabile U-Form.
Schlossmechanismus: wie bei einigen Rezensionen zu sehen ist das Schloss etwas widerständig. Das liegt daran, dass man den Riegel gegen den Bügel drücken muss, damit das Schloss sicher und ohne gewackel zuschließen kann. Dennoch erstmal ein kleines Zeitärgernis, denn man muss erstmal einige Minuten probieren, um sich daran zu gewöhnen.
Unabgerundete Form: der Hersteller beschreibt, dass das Schloss beim Verschluss keine runde Form zum Schließen benutzt hat. Das Ziel ist es, eine weitere Schwachstelle eines Bügelschlosses damit auszuhebeln.
Der Bügel ist tatsächlich an den Ecken etwas eingekerbt. Wer aber einmal versehentlich nur einen von den Bügelnasen angeschlossen hatte, weiß, dass die Einkerbung nicht ausreicht, um ein Drehen (wenn auch nur ein kleines) zu verhindern. Daher leider ein weiterer Sternabzug für die leicht irreführende Marketing-Bezeichnung.
Abgesehen davon ist das Schloss wohl eines der besseren in der Preisklasse. Dementsprechend kann man es durchaus empfehlen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good make, good lock.
Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseFeel secure, the longer sides let me secure multiple bikes together with multiple cables and ulocks easier.
The Krypto name is a good deterrent in itself so I use two of these with two cables and a couple of padlocks to secure 4 bikes together.
Yes the locks and the cables are worth more than some of our bikes now but that’s the game.
I also use this longer one to secure my tow bar bike carrier to the chassis instead of the manufacturer’s plastic looking lock.
Pretty straight forward to use, both prongs for straight in to lock either way around so no twisting after one is cut, silver standard lock which means something to someone I guess, I want all the locks to be thief proof.
The key for this is in the middle underneath and so uses a shorter key than normal.
Happy so far, used in bad weather and hot weather and the lock still works fine.

Style: Long ShacklePattern Name: lockVerified PurchaseIt looks good and strong and the lock works well for the moment. Large enough to lock a wheel with the frame to a bike rack. It gives peace of mind.
