Kryptonite Kryptoflex 1018 Key Cable Bicycle Lock (10mm x 6-Foot) Review

I am satisfied with this lock. The length is just right for locking to a post/fence/etc. Although the cable is quite stiff and takes a bit of wrestling to thread it thru the fence slats. Still, I'm glad I didn't get a 5 or 6 footer that would have been thinner gauge. Along with the bike frame bracket, this lock travels very well. The key action is smooth and works well.

Thick cable but more than half of diameter is plastic/rubber. Very thin wire, parked bike in front of building with cameras. Took someone a few seconds to cut through the lock.

I bought this lock. Installed it on my bike the same day I received it. That night a friend stopped by looked at it and said, "you cant use that lock" why? "because I you can open it easy" yeah right. I swear to you as god as my witness he had that lock open in under 3 minutes. I almost died. 3 minutes. He's statement, "I just stole your bike". Unbelievable. Any kid that's messed with an old cheap 4 dial lock knows it can be opened by pulling apart the two ends while separating and moving the dials. I hadn't thought about that in 20 years but apparently the same still holds true. I've since opened it the same way to remember the old days and think wow, some things never change. Thankfully, my bike is to nice to leave untended anyways, people just don't respect other peoples things anymore. But it would have been nice to know even to run in for a quick cup of coffee the bike would have been safe, but not with this lock. Thank god for good friends. And if your bike is worth more than $300, do yourself a favor. don't leave it because it will be gone in "under 3 minutes" if you must. buy a lock with a key.

Some people have issues with this cable being easily cut, which leads to their bike being stolen. I want to set the record straight about this product and proper locking methods. These cables are by no means meant to be your sole locking device, but rather, they are meant to be used in conjunction with (ideally) a U-Lock. I work in a bike shop and attend school at Michigan State, a virtual candy store for bike thieves, and as such proper locking is imperative. First off, buy yourself a good U-Lock. I would recommend going with the Kryptonite brand, as they are THE name in bike locks. I myself use what Kryptonite calls the "Fahgettaboudit" which is an 18mm-thick, vinyl-coated monster that would make New York's most proficient bike thieves shudder. THIS IS WHAT YOU USE TO LOCK YOUR BIKE TO THE STATIONARY OBJECT, not the cable. Put the U-Lock through the frame and through the stationary object. You then use a cable (I reccommend a seven or four-foot KryptoFlex, again, for the same reasons) to act as a secondary security device and, more importantly, SECURE YOUR REMOVABLE COMPONENTS (such as a quick-release wheel or seat). Before closing the U-Lock, put one end of the looped cable onto the U-Lock, then loop the cable through your wheel and seat supports. Put the other end of the looped cable onto the U-Lock, close the U-Lock, and walk away whistling, because your bike is now un-stealable. That is the proper application for these cables.
Okay, so now to actually review the cable. It's amazing. You cannot top Kryptonite's quality, and it is very useful. It is also just as resistant to cutting as any other cable you'll find. Top-notch durability
Now, there's no doubt that when people walk past your bike, with cables snaking through it like some kind of evil invasive weed, and a five-pound U-Lock hanging off the side, they'll be thinking "Man, this guy (or girl) is really obsessed with bike security." But, hey, isn't that the point?

I am pleased with this lock. Its length makes it easy to secure the bike to things, though it also makes the lock large to store on the bike. Yet the velcro strip that comes with it makes it easy to secure so it isn't in the way. And the bracket is great, with an easy push-button release. A good, medium-high security lock.
