Kryptonite Kryptoflex 1218 Key Cable Bicycle Lock Bike Lock

I love that this bicycle lock has its own mounting system to attach to the frame of my bicycle for easy storage and use. It is sturdy, a very good length, and I like the ease of a key lock. If you register your lock, they have a lost key program so that if you ever lose yours, they will know what lock you have and send you a new set. I did find that it is easy to pinch a finger or the skin on your hand in the lock when you are closing it, so just be a bit careful. I am certain this cable will not hold up to a pair of bolt cutters, but then again, I only need it for local rides around my neighborhood, and I am not too worried about someone putting in that much effort to steal my bike.

I won't lose this lock going over a bump like i did with a previous one I used. It attaches to the bike very securely. Locking mechanism seems pretty well made

This is my second Kryptonite lock, and the second one to break after a year of light usage in fair weather. Both broke in the same way: the lock spins around as you turn the key (instead of releasing the catch), and the locking bolt no longer clicks into place at all. I was willing to let the first time this identical thing happened with a previous Kryptonite lock go as a one-off, but now I cannot trust this product line.

It's pretty solid, I wouldn't recommend using this setup for leaving your bike overnight in the ghetto but it works fine for locking your bike up outside the bar at the beach. It comes with a nice mount so you can mount it on your frame somewhere. It has a pretty solid locking mechanism and it's long enough to loop through another bike or two. I'm buying a second for my other bike now.

I bought the 6 foot version of this lock so I could loop it through both wheels of one bike and then to a bike rack, pole,etc.. If my wife and I ride together I can loop it through the frames and one wheel of each bike and then to a rack. Like all locks of this type it will keep a casual thief away, but if someone has a large set of bolt cutters or an angle grinder they will take your bike. For a short term situation in populated areas I think it is a good lock, but I wouldn't leave my bike overnight or in a remote location with just this lock. The lock bracket installed easily and holds the lock on the bike well. Amazon Prime shipping was excellent as usual.

I love this lock! I think it's kind of pointless to get too hung up on if it can be cut through. Of course it can. It's a cable! I've had this lock for a couple of years and I consider it one of my better purchases. The quality is great. The length is really great The diameter of the cable is very good and totally acceptable to me. Anything can be stolen. Heck, they could steal my car with all three bikes on it! We mostly use it for the three bikes on our bike rack for camping trips etc. I also use it at the campsite to lock all three bikes around a large tree. I know, I know... they could always cut down the tree. ; )

It's a locking cable. Having anything at all will stop 90% of thieves, so it works. BUT: This is NOT a 1/2" cable, as advertised - it is a 3/8" or maybe just 5/16" cable inside a 12mm jacket. The jacket's great, and completely necessary to protect the cable and your bike, but the cable is not 1/2". Just so you know, 3/8" and smaller is typically cut - by professionals, not just thieves - using 24" cable cutters. That's right! The 'proper', standard way to cut this stuff doesn't even require a saw! SO...as I said, if you've got any kind of lock on your bike, you're a whole lot better off than with nothing at all. This cable does the job well enough. The lock has a plastic outer casing. I assume, based on the weight, that it has a pretty beefy mechanism inside, but time will tell. One of the two plates that slides across the key slot has already gotten stuck, leaving the slot exposed. Not a big deal, but it's worrisome.

Here is the bottom line me being in a law enforcement field.............if someone wants something bad enough they will find a way to get it! This lock keeps two people from taking your stuff- -The honest & -The lazy crook/thief I just bought this unit but have had one for years on my bike rack for when I travel with my bikes. It has never been attempted nor anyone ever broken it. Heck, they probably look at the massive 12mm cable and think this one I will pass along on. Now that is not saying if you parked somewhere remote or in a high crime area for long enough the right thief having a bolt cutter could kill this in seconds and be off with your goods. It just keeps the lazy at bay and honest folks honest. I sold my bike rack currently have for a upgrade and the buyer wanted the lock too..............so I just simply replaced it here on Amazon. So if your looking to find something affordable; robust; and a deterrent then this lock is the ticket. Then again..........just sit by your investment with a tiger!

予想以上に重もいのがネック。短時間駐輪の盗難対策には安心して使用出来るので、あまり重量を気にしない方にはオススメです。 ただし・・・ ワイヤー部分は太く安心感はありますが、まっすぐ伸びず、施錠時に地球ロックしづらい！（収納時は、気持ちよく丸くなります。） キー🔑を刺したままじゃないとロック出来ません！ 力を入れすぎてキー🔑を回したら、曲がりました！強度に問題あり！ 画像上が今回購入のクリプトナイト細い部分が曲がった（幸い、手直し出来ました。） 下の同社クリプトナイトU字ロックのカギ🔑と同じタイプなら強度もあり良かったと思います。 ゆえに、星⭐️

Soddisfattissimo! È vero che è un pochino pesante a causa della robustezza, ma diventa molto facile e pratico da usare grazie al fermo che lo ammorsa al telaio e lo tiene sempre pronto all’utilizzo.

It's Kryptonite ! Super man strength. This lock is perfect for using in the city. It is long enough to secure the bike to many places. I have had one before but sold it with the bike it was for. I would never buy any other locks since I've owned a Kryptonite lock

When I first got this lock, attaching the mount to my bike frame was slightly confusing. I had to read the instructions several times, while wondering how on earth it would stay on the frame. I needn't have worried, as the mount is stable as a rock and hasn't moved of it's accord. Unlike other brands of locks that I have reviewed, this mount holds the lock in place with plenty of surface area for the lock to sit into. I am not even slightly concerned about the lock coming away from the mount. This mounting system could be educational to other brands and manufacturers of locks.

Me encanto . Si es verdad que es un poco grande ya que la mia es la correa mas larga . Pero esta marca piensa en todo ya que viene preparada por si la quieres acoplar a la bici. Me parece un muy buen material y muy buenos acabados. Ademas puedo sacar la llave antes de cerrar el candado cosa que me parece practica ya que hay otros que no lo permiten y tienes que estar con las llaves de por medio cuando solo deseas bloquear el candado una vez bien sujeto en tu bici. Estoy muy contento y les doy la maxima puntuacion. Lei alguna critica acerca de su durabilidad de la llave. Yo por el momento la veo bastante aceptable y robusta. Espero disfrutarla mucho.
