## Description

desertcart.com: Bike U Lock with Cable - Via Velo Heavy Duty Bicycle U-Lock,14mm Shackle and 10mm x1.8m Cable with Mounting Bracket for Road, Mountain, Electric & Folding Bike : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Good Product at a Good Price. Excellent customer Service - This locks is very suitable for my purposes. The price was right and the quality seems good. I like the fact that it is covered with a rubbery material that keeps it from scratching my bike. The mount for the bike is fine but its a bit of effort to get the cable secured with the lock in such a way that it does not interfere with riding. On my bike I have a basket and usually throw the lock in the basket in transit so this is not such a problem for me. We bought two of these locks. One for me and one for my partner. He dropped the key for his in the water beside our boat at the dock which means he is down to one key. I saw this lock on sale on desertcart the other day for about $20 but did not order another one like I should have. If it goes on sale again Ill get my partner another lock and use his old one to lock a shopping cart to the door handle of one of those people who take up two parking places to protect their beautiful cars from the unwashed masses. For this alternative application a spare key, or even one key, would not be necessary. Update October 9: As I mentioned above my partner dropped one of the keys for his lock into the water beside our boat. When the folks at Via Velo read my review they immediately contacted me for my mailing address and the key code. They shipped spare keys, from China, for his lock. They work fine. I had the new keys in less than a week so now we don't have to worry about breaking out the hacksaw if my partner dropped his remaining key in the drink. In the time since I wrote my original review I have used this lock dozens of times and when I lock my bike at the gym I look at the other bikes with the $100 locks on them and cant see the difference between those and my Via Velo lock. When you add to the quality of the product the obvious commitment to customer service this company has, I am enthusiastic about what other products these folks might offer.
Review: Dependable Lock. Responsive Customer Service. Great Purchase. - If you're looking for a good, solid lock this ViaVelo is a great choice. It's tough, simple to lock and flexible to mount in several locations. You may want to try mounting the lock a couple of different ways to see which will work best for your bike and riding style. The instructions show mounting positions on the seat post, down tube and crossbar. You may find other spots that work depending on your bike's design. I think the mount works on most tubes between 20mm and 42mm. It can be a little tricky to install, so make sure to follow the directions to secure it properly. For me, the best option was mounting on the crossbar back toward the seat post. I thought there were fewer vibrations in that spot even on trail and city rides. The lock action is smooth and the keys do not jam. It also has an onboard cap to keep your locking mechanism dry when not in use. The cable is strong and just the right length to secure your bike without being too bulky to bring along on a ride. You may need to practice the best way to use the U-lock and cable to secure both wheels and your frame. There are videos online with some great ideas if you need help with that. After a full season of use, I did have a part break on the mount. So, I contacted customer service and they offered to send me a replacement straightaway. So, it's good to know on a purchase like this that the company is standing behind their product. Overall, this is a great lock for me and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another ViaVelo.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it  have a cancer warning label ? I’ve noticed many locks do.**
A: The plastic tube surrounding the steel cable may be made of PVC.  A law in the state of California requires a warning label for certain chemicals. The label is standard: "This product contains a chemical which is known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or reproductive disorders."  It's called the Prop 65 Warning.

PVC contains chemicals called phthalates, which mimic the effect of estrogen in the body. On a bicycle lock, exposure is not such a big worry. In a catheter or IVC tube, yeah.

**Q: My son immediately lost one of the keys and now I'm living in fear he will lose the last one.  Can I get a duplicate key?**
A: Gee..dont know how old your son is..but I would hold on to the 3rd one FOR HIM..have him secure 2nd one on 
" around the neck" strap..hang on front door...knob..slip on every time he goes out biking..works for my whole family..each has own hook by door ( we also add on house keys ect...hope that helps..

**Q: Do you guys sell just the mounting bracket?**
A: Where can I order just the mounting bracket?  I didn't use the lock for a long time since were indoors but mounted the lock on the bracket. 4-5 months time frame the mounting bracket cracked up in Arizona heat. It does not even a peak summer here yet. Please let me know where I can find the mounting bracket?

**Q: The lock is really sticking and won’t open sometimes at all anymore, is it possible to get a replacement since I just bought it a few months ago?**
A: Liquid polymer such as wd40 or white lithium ... fix that right up

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great lock, storage mount could use some work.
*by J***. on September 13, 2025*

Very nice bike lock, I was even able to use it nicely without the cable. It’s easy to unlock, it’s thick enough to where a thief can’t cut it without significant effort (or more likely power tools). My only gripe is that the mount that this comes with to secure it to your bike when you’re not using it is very bulky. I have yet to find a bike that it fits onto without the lock ramming into some other part already on the bike while fitted. I’ve just been locking the bike lock when not in use, and hanging it on my handlebar.
