I had been looking for this chain for quite some time and after much research and looking online I believe that it has been discontinued by the original manufacturer Kryptonite. After trying several bike shops in NYC those dealers told me that it was not available. So when I found it on Amazon I was very surprised and ordered one immediately. The chain arrived much quicker than the promised date. It was well packed and when I opened the cardboard packaging the fist thing that I noticed was that indeed it was brand new. This is a very hefty, very heavy and very well made chain with a beefy Kryptonite bike lock. Neither the chain or the lock has any scratches or dents. The one very strange thing I noticed was that rhe Kryptonite logo, which was clearly on the lock, started to smudge and disappear if my hand touched it! One of the other reviewers also mentioned this in his post. So I used my thumb to rub over the Kryptonite logo and it came off very easily with no effort. This does NOT mean that the chain or the lock are used. The entire item is BRAND NEW as far as I can tell. It There could be various reasons why the Kryptonite logo smears/smudges/disappears upon touching it but I have no specific or clear idea as to why. When I tried to smudge the Kryptonite label with my finger on my other two Kryptonite locks from the other chains this didn’t happen. I even tried scratching the other logos on the other two locks but they didn’t come off at all, not even a little bit. REAST ASSURED the Kryptonite New York Legend 1515 chain AND lock are brand new and in perfect working condition.

I purchased the 1515 specifically for securing a valuable bicycle to my SUV's cross bars. While normally locking a bike to my Yakima rack I overlooked that the bike rack is only attached to the vehicle's crossbars using simple-to-cut rubber straps!
So much attention and marketing is given to lock thickness, resistance to grinding wheels, etc. but no one ever thinks about the ease of just cutting the butter-soft rubber straps! Theft of both the rack AND bike as a unit can easily occurs in seconds.
To truly deter and prevent a bike theft the Kryptonite 1515 with its long, hardened steel chain securely attaches the bike to the vehicle crossbars, and a 2nd lock (ie; U-Lock best) attached from the bike to the Yakima has deterred all thieves. Not 100% foolproof but definitely a huge PITA when easier targets abound.

Use it to secure 2 fat tire E-bikes together on a rear hitch mounted E-bike carrier along with individual kryptonite foldable locked for each. Ime so I dont have worry that the bikes are secure enough to allow the e-bikes to be stored overnight on the car carrier because most hotels forbid e bikes to be stored inside a room. Only high secure lock that locked 2 bikes together a d to the carrier. Piece of mind when ur vacation plans center around using g the e-bikes.

This product is exactly what I expected -- a thick, heavy, hardened chain with a lock that is the chain's equal. The links are too thick to fit inside the jaws of many bolt cutters, and those that can get a bite will only do so at the very end, not deep inside the jaws where the real cutting power is found.

Of course, a disk grinder will cut though any security item, but with the thickness of this product it will likely take a good bit of time and noise to do so. It will not be a 10-second job.

I bought this to lock bikes up overnight, so that I can leave them on my hitch mounted rack during road trips. I am not worried about the weight, which is considerable. This chain is just long enough to lock to my receiver's safety chain loop at one end, pass through three bike frames, and lock to the fourth bike at the other end.

The lock's shackle is as thick as the chain links, and has enough room to run the chain through it, to create a loop in the chain should you need to. The lock body is very robust, with several important security features, such as the bar locking both sides of the shackle. The locking mechanism can be defeated with very specialized tools and much practice, but neither is common among opportunistic bike thieves.

I took off a star because the "New York Legend" etc. printing on the lock easily comes off with just a wipe of your finger. This seems to be relatively common with certain Kryptonite products, but at this price point, for a higher-end security product, I would expect better. One side of the lock also came smeared with something similar to sunblock cream or some type of grease.

This lock is a as good as it gets. Yes, it’s heavy, but that’s the deal. Heavy and tough to break.

As with any locks, a grinder wheel will make short work of this chain. There’s no stopping that, unfortunately.

I gave this 5 stars because I'm rating the lock. I'd have put 3 stars if rating the order.

5 stars - the lock is definitely big; not something I'd ride around with on my e-bike. I intend to use it when parking the bike for the night. I'll feel less anxious with this lock on my bike.

3 stars - the lock is obviously a returned item. It arrived in pieces, there was gunk and scratches on the lock, and the label was for this chain AND a disc lock. This was either returned without the disc lock or the label was mixed with another product. The chain and lock itself are not impaired so I decided not to exchange, but it's always disappointing to receive a used item when paying for a new item.

I love this tune, usually thieves, sees kryptonite, and just move onto the next thing. Nothing is for sure, but this is a great deterrence.

I have read so many recommendations and decided to go after something heavy for the garage. Honestly, I thought that it will be smaller! Also, 150cm is actually not that long.
The logo was off from the very beginning but that’s not important I guess.
So far I’m impressed, but be aware that it’s super heavy (and not the easiest to put on by mi wife)

Das Kryptonite-Schluss ist extrem massiv und sehr schwer. Also nichts zum Mitnehmen auf dem Fahrrad. Allerdings perfekt um es zu Hause so abzuschliessen, dass Diebe es nur mit grösster Mühe (und Lärm) stehlen können. Die Kette ist dabei so schwer, dass sie das Fahrrad zur Seite zieht- man muss sich ein bisschen überlegen wie man sie anbringt.

Das Schloss funktioniert gut, man sollte aber gleich zu Beginn und auch später regelmässig etwas Öl in die beweglichen Teile geben. Ich habe alles im Trockenen und hoffe dass ich auch lange Freude daran haben werde. Für Dauereinsatz draussen bei Regen und Kälte ist es vermutlich nur bedingt geeignet.
