Rio: Candado de gran seguridad para dejar la bici en la calle. Es muy fácil de poner en la bici. La única pega el peso pero si quieres un candado seguro con el que no te roben la bici el candado pesa. El cable es de gran ayuda para candar la bici con mayor seguridad.

自転車用の鍵として購入しました
ワイヤーは正直信頼が置けないので外して使っていません
U字の本体は流石の頑丈さなのですが自転車への固定具があまりよろしくないです
マジックテープか何かで固定しておいた方が信頼できると思います
コレより高い鍵は流石に躊躇するので妥協するラインとしていい目安だと思います

Trusting the Kryptonite brand was the right decision. I bought this in order to replace a very similar lock that was by a lower quality brand and can see and feel the differences hugely. Having this comparison emphasises the small details that make Kryptonite a superior, and therefore trusted, brand.
- Small enough for bag, coat pocket and large back pocket on men's jeans but not mine!
- Lighter than similar locks of this size from other brands
- Key mechanism is smooth and secure
- Sturdy and durable
- VERY GOOD PRICE!
- Fits a large bike (I have a very large men's bike and it fits, snugly, but it fits!)
- I have not used the connection onto the frame as I tend to either put it in my bag or just wrap it around the frame depending on my journey.
- Good bright colour and I think this adds as a deterrent to would-be-theives as the Kryptonite brand is known for their toughness
- D-lock and cable lock combination
** GOOD INFO** I was once left a note on my bike by the local police who had graded all of the bikes in the area on how well they were locked. The extra info stated that the most effective way of locking the...

*If you live in New York City, stop reading this review and go buy the heaviest chain you can find, or try the Kryptonite Faghettaboudit. If not, keep reading.
Aftter I got my last bike stolen by locking it up with a cheap cable lock, I knew I had to make some changes if I wanted to protect my new bike. I did a ton of research on bike locks, and decided that Kryptonite was the only way to go. With the best name in bike locks, and the customer service to back it up, I only had to decide how much protection I needed. If you like me, and are trying to figure out what suits your needs best, consider the following:
Cable Locks: Just don't. Anybody with a pair of wire cutting pliers can chew through any cable lock in a matter of minutes. No power tools necessary. Unless you live in a virtually theft-free area, don't take the risk.
U-Locks are popular for their solid design, and the mounting brackets that come with just about any U-lock make it perfect for a commuter bike. U-Locks come in a few typical sizes: 4x9, 3.25x7, and 4x11.5. The smaller the lock, the more secure it is against prying attacks. The longer it is, the easier it is too lock onto...

Le cadenas : suffisamment lourd il inspire confiance mais reste assez léger pour être transportable au quotidien. Pas trop petit il permet d'enlacer à peu près tout type de mobilier urbain (mais pas quand même un lampadaire), pas trop grand, ça lui évite de balloter en tout sens et d'être trop accessible aux outils des méchants pas beaux. Il est par ailleurs bien noté dans les différents test que j'ai pu trouvé en ligne. Son gainage semble de qualité et protège bien la peinture si on prend garde à ne pas heurter le vélo avec la partie qui s'enclenche dans le support.
Le câble : à considérer, comme tout câble, comme un simple accessoire permettant de sécuriser des roues ou autres périphériques il est bien fini, avec un gainage de qualité. Il bénéficie d'un velcro permettant de le maintenir enroulé pour le ranger. A vrai dire je l'utilise peu, mes roues et ma selle sont déjà sécurisés par des serrages antivol.
Les clefs : une des trois clefs dispose de l'éclairage et est un peu encombrante (comme une clef de voiture à peu près), deux autres sans éclairage sont moins volumineuses. La taille des clefs est un peu...

Amazon Customer:
I have owned a few Kryptonite locks (2 big Evolution 4's and 1 Kryptolock2) , but this one must be the best I have had so far for the price!
It is lighter than the bigger Kryptonite models, yet not as small as the smallest models (evolution 4 mini for example), so it is easy to lock to a number of fixed objects (traffic signs, bike racks, parking meters, ...). The Cable you get provides enough length to lock both front and rear wheels to the lock. The evolution 4 or New York locks are tougher, but also way heavier. This lock also requires a diamond blade saw to break it, so I think this lock hits the sweet spot.
I highly recommend this lock!
PRO's:
- Tough/Safe lock, takes a diamond blade saw to cut through
- Extra cable enables you to lock both wheels for extra security, extra deterrent for thieves
- Lock is big enough to lock bike frame to most fixed objects
- Lock is not as heavy as the biggest Kryptonite locks (which are really heavy!)
- Great price on the lock + cable combo
- Key comes with a LED light, and you get free replacement keys from Kryptonite
CON's:
- Mounting bracket is complicated to install, but does...

Josh: I dig this lock, but I purchased it for my wife's bike which is a 50 cm Trek Domane AL3. I purchased this one because it's stubby, but it still isn't stubby enough. 😛Lock's great, but I'm hard pressed to give it 5's across the board because it should be noted that it only fits certain sized frames.
