Good heavy lock,
The lock itself feels heavy and sturdy.
Only complaint is that putting together the 2 units (the U part and the locking part) is sometimes tricky, especially with the cable. The lock is not auto lock when the 2 units are clipped together, but you have to turn the key which makes it slightly inconvenient.
So, good lock. Usage, slightly tricky. Hence the 4 stars.

Abus Tough Lock – 15 security rating,
The usual great Abus solidity. And it is the highest security rating – 15 – as I had hoped and expected but not (strangely) mentioned in the writeup. Especially effective with one through the frame and one through the front wheel. A good price and a very speedy delivery. Weight is the only drawback but that’s the price you pay to keep the loathsome scumbags away (yes – I have had a bike stolen and it REALLY taxed my pacifism)

Extremely solid well made lock,
I have recently paid £700 on a new road bike and I am quite keen to keep hold of it! I bought this lock after a friend recommended Abus and I have to say that I am not disappointed. It has the maximum level security rating 15 overall. Thieves have many different methods of sabotaging bike security such as bolt cutting, sawing, drilling, lock picking, ice spray etc. This lock will prevent all of these as well as having anti-corrosion properties. I also have my bike insured and this lock meets the criteria for 99.9% of insurance companies. I use this lock together with the Kryptonite Kryptoflex 7 ft Cable Lock (10 mm x 213 cm) and this also deters thieves and keeps my quick release wheels secure.
The lock comes with 2 keys – one with a light and the other spare. The keys have their own uniques code card. The lock is very simple to use – simply attach the U bracket to the main body and turn the key to secure. It doesn’t “snap shut” but it is not difficult to lock and this feature gives it that extra security.
The lock is heavy yes but if you want excellent security then you need to compromise. I prefer to carry my locks in my rucksack whilst riding to work but this is just my preference. It comes with a bracket to attach to the frame but I have not fitted mine.
To conclude I recommend this lock highly. For the price you will not find any better locks out there. Buy it.
