Titanker Bike Lock Cable,Kids Bike Cable Basic Self Coiling Combination Cable Combo Bike Locks with Complimentary Mounting Bracket, 1/2 Inch Diameter(4Feet, 6Feet)

Very happy with the product. I bought it to primarily secure my wife's and my bike when I don't need to use my heavy duty Kryptonite locks. The latter are really heavy to tote around when not needed. So when we stop at a restaurant in a fairly public area or want to take a break and walk around an area I will on using these. I doubt I would use them in unlighted low traffic areas, but then again even the Kryptonites are at tisk under these conditions.The Ushakes seem pretty well put together, with a rugged lock mechanism. I also like that the fact that the combination wheels are fairly large and can be easily manipulated. The cable itself is fairly pliable so it makes it easy to maneuver around the bikes. It weighs slightly over a pound whereas the K's are almost 3+ lbs., this make a big difference on the bike. I was not able to use the plastic carrying clamp provided to attach to the bike but this is because I have a pannier mounted over the rear wheel so there just is not enough room. This is not a Ushake problem, so no stars lost there. I instead thread a couple of loops of the cable through the frame underpinning my saddle and lock the cable, which works great - it's out of the way and I'll never lose it.The folks at Ushake really understand customer service! I screwed up my initial setting of the combination and in a panic sent off an email, which they replied to within a couple of hours. I had figured out my issue so didn't need assistance at that point but it was good to know they were there if help is needed. Nice job, guys!

If you are looking for a lightweight portable lock look no further. I would highly recommend this if you're looking for something to lock your bike in a safe area or just to use as a theft deterrent.These types of locks can easily be cut, but if you're just using it to grab lunch or a run to the store it should serve all of your needs. I personally would use a U lock if you're going to store your bike outside for extended periods of time.I tried to pick the lock, just to check the safety and I approve of it's ability to lock.Setting the combination was easy. For my needs (a bike to the store or grabbing a bite to eat) it works perfect. Would buy again!My Amazon Review Criteria:5 Star: I got what I expected from the product and it was/worked better than expected. If you are considering a purchase, buy it.

I purchased this 1.5 months ago. The lock seems sturdy, the combination very easy to set. The dial requires firm finger torque to turn, but I'm not counting off for that. While the lock seems to be pretty good quality, it seems as if the manufacturer used something akin to egg carton quality plastic to fabricate the mounting bracket. My bracket installed without problem, and I'm pretty sure I didn't overtighten the bolts, but one day I discovered the mount had slid down my center beam to the bottom. One bolt had ripped completely through the bracket, the other hole had a crack through the plastic to the edge. I sent a message to the seller today asking about a replacement.[UPDATE 2016/05/22] The seller asked for more pictures and to confirm my mailing address, presumably to send a replacement bracket. If I receive a replacement, I'll reinforce the bolts with large washers.[UPDATE 2016/06/21] The seller sent a replacement lock and bracket (so now I have two locks). I carefully mounted the new bracket on my seat post (before it was mounted on the frame tube in which the seat post was inserted) and faced the lock bracket rearward (before it was facing forward). I used a washer for each of the two screw heads, relying on the hex nut to act as a washer since it fits into a hex-shaped recessed hole. I slowly tightened each of the two screws til very snug, but (hopefully) not so much as to overly stress the plastic. So far, no noticeable deterioration/breakage, but time will tell. The lock is pretty heavy, which may have contributed to the breakage of the first bracket. Added 1 star.[UPDATE 2016/10/23] Around July the replacement bracket broke in similar fashion, around the screw mounting holes, despite the washers. I have resorted to keeping the cable lock in my bike saddle bag.
