Getting your bike stolen is pretty much the worst nightmare for any bike rider out there. This is one of the reasons why Abus decided to design a unbreakable bike lock that folds into a fairly small case, which makes it easier to carry around. The overall design is really nice and very unique, not something you’d see everyday. The downside of this lock, is that it is extremely heavy (a whopping 3.6 pounds!!) and it doesn’t quite fit well on a BMX frame, which is something you don’t
do with most locks anyway. The straps are a bit long, so strapping this on a mountain bike would be much more logical, simply because of the bigger tube size this would fit much better on.
If you are paranoid on getting your bike stolen and don’t mind hauling around a heavy lock in your bag, this might just be the lock for you. But that’s only if you are willing to spend around $179.99 for this bad boy of a bike lock.
