Hiplok Z LOK COMBO Multi-use Security Tie & Bike Lock

Nice and lightweight easy to use . My yellow one failed and it's not even a year old . Locked my bike up in York Railway Station under cover for the night and went to get the bike today . None of the numbers would engage and unlock . Tried twice before having to traipse 30 mins home amd back again with WD40 and cutters . I then had to faff around twice more spraying sed WD40 into the lock which failed then had to go find a police officer showing him proof the bike was mine and to supervise the cutting of the lock to retrive my own bike so I didn't look like a criminal . Buy with caution . Also these are not wire cutter proof

Firstly, this is not sold as a "proper" bike lock. This is something to secure your bike whilst it remains in your sight. It literally aims to prevent the bile from being taken from under your nose.I have the combination version - the key version is too easy to open. It's neat and lightweight and fits in a jersey pocket.This is essentially a big zip tie and the principle is sound. For me though, I've come across a few occasions where tying up has been difficult because the tie could do with being a little bit longer.If you're with a friend who also has one of these, you can join them together and lash both of your bikes together.

This is brilliant works like a zip tie, but no keys to lose, you just put your unique number on the locking mechanism.Great for the quick cafe stops, also if you have a longer cable can use to tie two bikes together it’s a quick and easy cable lock.Very lite to carry with you.A very sturdy bike locking mechanism.

TLDR: - Not fit for purpose, will cause you more problems than it solves.This looked like a brilliant little lock to secure an E-scooter for a few mins whilst nipping into the local shops. Set a new code as soon as I got it, read the instructions and tested I could easily lock and lock it before I actually needed to use it - No problems. Few days later, I decide to take the scooter down to the shops for the first time, quickly tested the locking procedure again before I set off, no problems.Get my stuff from the shops, reach down to unlock it and BAM - Jammed solid. No matter what I did, it wasn't unlocking. I had to get a friend who had a van to come pick me up. Once home, spent half an hour double checking the instructions to ensure I wasn't doing anything wrong, watched some videos, etc. Still nothing. Then found some other users had encountered the same thing so this was not an isolated incident. In the end, like others, having exhausted all non destructive options, I had to cut off with a pair of bolt cutters.

So light but so strong. This is a great deterrant to any bike thief. Would be hard to cut with bolt cutters as it's too flat.I use it along with my larger d lock. I use it to stop people stealing my front wheel.

These are purfect I purchase 2 to put tho my wheels there quick and easy as they have combination locks so you never lose a keys there stainless steel in them so can't be cut off putting them tho the wheels even if your bike gets stolen they can't walk or cycle off on it they would have to disconnect the wheels

This is basically a toughened zip tie. Very useful because you can tighten it like a zip tie and stop your bike from slipping - do it up tight and it won't move.The big downside is that this is a really bad combination lock - I've never tried to pick a lock before, but I didn't bother looking up the combination this was set to because I could feel it just by turning the dials - it might delay a thief by a couple of seconds, but it's stretching it to call it a lock. The non combination version that instead uses a universal "key" to unlock is probably a more useful product.

Pretty good and lightweight. I use it on rides when I pop in to cafe or toilet for a few mins. Not sure I would trust it for locking up a bike in a city for a decent length of time but ok for the price for short periods. Large enough for locking two wide frame bikes to a bike rack.
