I'd say that this lock's security factor is similar to how triwing screws work, where the security is based off of how rare the tools are for it

I love the videos, but I've said it before, I think you should take the time to show how quickly it can be cut. Some people will shrug this off and say, "Well, most people won't have a tool to cut that", not knowing just how easy it is. Just my 2c

In fairness I use a shitty 2 euro lock like this if I'm running into a shop for a minute and not arsed unlocking my padlock & chain and unwinding it. That's the only use for this, aside from it slowing down a thief for maybe 10 seconds

It is to prevent casual petty theft. In other words. Keeping the average douche out of your hair. Besides which. It would be pretty obvious if you had chained up your ride in some heavy traffic area, when the dude with huge bolt cutters starts taking off after chomping that cable. Picking the lock is also kinda obvious too. Rdprcially in a high camera area like a train station.
LowKey LowKey
@Sakara123 My point is still valid. these things stop the average douche from taking your ride. The douche with tools is doing it for a living and they dont care either way.
Sakara123
people really don't care if it doesn't affect them. a few years ago I had a pretty nice Gary Fisher bike that I took great care of. I had it chained up with 2 kryptonite locks in a high traffic area with cameras. at some point someone walked up with a pretty large variety of tools, unbolted literally everything from the chassis & snapped the 3 joints holding the suspension, leaving literally just the points that had been enclosed by welds. TLDR ; bike security doesn't really matter because people won't intervene anyway.

You could probably cut that with a decently sharp pair of kitchen shears 😂

Firstly, why didn't you cut the cable? Secondly, when are you picking your way into Master Lock's HQ? "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, and today we're in the office of Master Lock's CEO. I have come with a very long list of questions, which I'll be leaving in this locked drawer. One is binding-"

Every time I see you take on a bike lock it reminds me of how dumb I was as a kid / teenager. I always thought the thick looking Bell and master cable locks and cheap U locks were the good stuff. I suppose that's probably because I grew up dirt poor and we couldn't afford a name brand bike lock like this.
Veronica Starre
I think he picked the lock faster than someone could cut the cable or possibly find and use the key given it’s on a key ring
DenarianLord
Well, if the lock requires special tools and skills to open, that knocks out your average bike thief. I'd imagine. But the cord is definitely an issue. You can have a lock so good it can't be picked open by anybody, doesn't matter if you can just go around the lock somehow.

nimrod126
I do so enjoy your videos and trying to catch up on them. But with this cable bike lock one would not be able to cut it with side cuts. One does not have the strength nor the leverage to cut a cable this thick. I tried to cut one similar that is smaller in diameter at 3/16” and side cuts will not do the job. This one is thicker at 5/16”. Cables are just to hard and flexible to be cut with side cuts. Great videos!

Locks worth 10% of the bike, we have bicycles at home that are about 50€, to spend more than 5€ for the lock would be a waste. in the cases the lock is only there for the drunken partygoers to find another bike to ride home.
