Oxford SecurityTask Force Motorcycle Ground Anchor Motorbike Security Sold Secure Gold Flip Up Wall Anchor

Now installed, in my garage floor to secure my ebike to, it will never move unless the house is demolished. My insurers wouldn't cover the bike in the garage unless I got a new garage door with special locks or this anchor. So I saved myself a lot of money :)

I bought this as an extra tie down due to my 1200cc motorcycle blowing over in the gales we had before Christmas.It was blown sideways off its centre stand!!A mate suggested tying it down as they do on ferries.So I bought this for that purpose.

very solid

Nice piece of security equipment that looks pretty robust, all of the metal is chunky so it will take a grinder to defeat it. Only downside is the hoop isn't very big. It takes a 13mm Oxford Hardcore XC quite happily but I've recently got a Pragmasis 16mm chain and the only way it'll fit through is to turn the links 90 degree's each time the next link gets to the hoop. Not an issue if you're just using the anchor as an end point but 16mm chain is marginal and you'd not get anything bigger through it.I have mine wall mounted, the plastic cover is quite robust but if it was on the ground and being driven over daily I'm not sure how long it would last.Apart from that it's pretty good but you need to be very precise when drilling the mounting holes (12mm for a pilot hole then 16mm for the bolts) and it serves the purpose of looking like hard work to break it with no chance of it being a silent attack.I've seen loads of reviews where security devices have been taken out with an angle grinder and the owner has been upset. Unfortunately all locks, chains and anchors can be cut this way, the idea is to go large enough with the chain, lock and anchor that bolt cutters are ineffective and the thief has to make a load of noise with a grinder, that's usually enough to make them think twice.
