5.0 out of 5 stars A good lock but not very secure., May 7, 2008

The lock is exactly as the product description states. Therefore, I am giving it 5 stars because the product is exactly what it claims to be (the create your own combination is especially nice).

However, after getting this lock, I feel most people would be much better off with something different. I use the lock for securing my bike. I wanted something that was small and light, but didn't realize just how small this product really is. The cable is pretty short, just barely long enough to secure the frame and both wheels, so usually I have to leave one wheel unsecured if locking the bike to something. Also, the cable is very thin and just looks like it could easily be cut with a good wire cutter. Fortunately, I live in a small suburb where most people don't even bother locking up their bikes, so this is a nice small/light solution. However, when I commute to work I still bring the 12mm cable and U-Lock because I don't trust this little thing in a city like Milwaukee.

3.0 out of 5 stars too easy to reset, April 8, 2010

This looked like a well built product, but the combination was too easy (at first, seemed too difficult) to reset, and resulted in me inadvertently changing the combination rendering the lock unusable. I tried giving it another chance and tried to find the combination (only 9999 total shouldn't take too long, right?) but gave up and returned it.

The cable seemed well built and the directions were clear enough, but the reset mechanism was so simplistic it was too easy to trigger accidentally. I feared this would happen out on the road, so back it goes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Would rate negative stars if available, November 2, 2008

You reset the combo by twisting the end. While locking or unlocking your bike, the you can accidentally twist the end and unintentionally change the combo. That is what happened to mine. I used it a few times, then once when trying to remove it from my bike, the combo I set stopped working. I have no idea what the new combo is. I'll have to cut the lock off my bike.

Buy a different lock.
