I had no idea what type of lock to buy for my bike. Reading a ton of Amazon.com reviews, I came to the conclusion that if anyone wants your bike that bad, they'll find a way to bust your lock. I felt a little more confident with this one because I read a lot of reviews that mentioned someone taking a hammer to the locks with a combanation and getting away with their bikes. Hopefully this one will keep my bike safe. I feel good about it. It is a heavy one though so if that is a concern you may want to look for another one. This one works for me though. I would recommend this to anyone.

Good lock, although the lock itself feels flimsy because of the plastic cover. The cable is a good length. I use it to secure two bikes to a bike rack and am able to go through the body and front rims of both.
 Good theft deterrent December 28, 2007

This should not be considered a standalone lock for a high risk area, but it is a quick and handy way to make your bike a little less attractive to steal. The ease of use ensures that it will get used frequently, and any lock has to be better than nothing at all.
My preferred use for this lock is as a backup for a good U-lock. With both locks, the bike looks fairly unfriendly for carrying away, and it allows you to lock the front wheel without removing it, which I find quite a pain.
Good cable, heavy lock November 7, 2007

This is a handy lock for your bike, except that the lock is very heavy to carry around. The cable is long enough to lock the bike with most things you can find at home, work or park. It comes with a spare key to save you if you lost the key somewhere. An improvement I would like to see is to hold the key in the lock when the lock is open.
I wouldn't depend on any kind of cable bike-lock for overnight protection. There is always chance that someone can cut a cable.
Cheap. Works. Not secure! August 15, 2007

It's better than nothing, but do realize that the cable can be compromised with relatively little effort (I'm told thieves simply insert two metal rods in one of those small loops and twist in opposite directions).
