Built with a robust stainless steel chain, this lock offers significant resistance against cutting and tampering attempts. The combination of a black and yellow color scheme enhances visibility, serving as a visual deterrent to potential thieves in busy urban settings.

Advantages

This chain lock provides a high level of flexibility due to its 1200 mm length, allowing users to secure their bicycle to various fixed objects such as lamp posts, bike racks, or railings with ease. The durable stainless steel construction ensures long-term resistance to environmental factors and physical attacks. Furthermore, the inclusion of two keys provides a convenient backup, ensuring that access to the bicycle is maintained even if one key is misplaced.

Suitable for

• Securing bicycles in urban environments
• Locking bikes to fixed street furniture
• Daily use for commuters and students
• Adding an extra layer of security for kids' ride-on equipment

When it may not be suitable

This lock may not be the ideal choice for high-risk areas where maximum security ratings are required for expensive professional bicycles. Due to the weight associated with a 1200 mm steel chain, it might be less convenient for users who prioritize extreme portability and minimal weight over robust protection.

Key specifications

• Length: 1200 mm
• Material: Stainless steel
• Color: Black and yellow
• Included: Two keys

How to use

To secure your bicycle, wrap the chain around the frame and the rear wheel, then pass it around a stable, immovable object like a bike rack. Insert the locking mechanism into the designated housing until it clicks securely into place. Ensure the chain is pulled taut to minimize the space available for leverage tools. Always keep the second key in a safe, accessible location at home.

What to consider before purchase

• Check if the 1200 mm length is sufficient for your specific locking needs
• Consider the weight of the chain if you plan to carry it frequently
• Ensure the locking mechanism is compatible with your bicycle frame design

Usage recommendations

Regularly clean the locking mechanism and apply a high-quality lock spray to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion over time. Avoid dragging the chain on the ground to keep the protective sleeve in good condition.
