Very Secure Lock.
A very good lock. It's kind of big but would be very hard to break. Didn't like bracket that came with lock so I just put around seat post and rear carrier.

Ordered this because it looked tougher than the other U-locks that can be had for $10-40. It might take a minute or two with an angle grinder (not verified) but it'll deter thieves with hacksaws and bolt cutters. Comes with a mounting clip that is screw on, not flimsy like the others that have a pull-tight mount. Comes with 5 keys (1 big, 4 small) which is nice but unnecessary for my use. I use this to lock my bike in the back of my truck (with a cable) and on campus. Easier to use than those circle-wound cable locks, and quite a bit more secure. On campus, this fits through the rear of the frame and rear wheel, securing all but the front wheel of my bike. This won't fit around your seat tube and rear wheel, you'll need something bigger for that. Great value for the price, I'd recommend this lock to any bike owner.

Great lock, easy to lock and unlock. It is big and fairly long however it just missed being able to get my front tire and frame (24 inch) together on same lock so I had to go with the frame when I purchased this for an event. Luckily the event customers were very nice and didn't take my front tire but I didn't expect that to happen either. It does come with a bike mountable holder which is nice and it keeps the lock securely in place when riding. It seems very thick and should take someone a bit of time to try and hack through so for the money spent i think it is great value on a fairly heavy duty lock, I would buy again at this point.

Locks are simple tools that need to do a few things perfectly. So far this lock has prevented my bike from being stolen, so that's a nod to its credibility. What's important to me is that the shackle opens and shuts reliably. In this case the OnGuard is flawless. I open and close my lock 10 times a day as I'm running errands, arriving at work etc. I've had other locks that were a pain to open & close. This lock has a solid tumbler & shackle that operate cleanly. And when it gums up I just squirt some WD40 (as suggested by the owners manual). Moreover, each lock includes 5 spare keys and a tag to allow you order replacements. You can tell these guys know their stuff.

Bike attachment crews seem prone to stripping so be careful and concise with your tools, just use a screwdriver anyways so you don't crack the plastic.

Not the easiest to re-lock as you have to leave your key in for it to go in all the way and activate the lock, but I suppose I'll get in the habit of doing so soon enough.

Otherwise seems like a solid lock. Was concerned from other reviews stating the lock is heavy that the u-bar itself wouldn't be, but it does seem to have a superior width and weight. Attachment is really easy to use, the design of it is smart. Gripes are minor.

The lock functions as you would expect any good U lock to. but there are a couple things that make this one a little unique. First is the on-bike clip is comes with, most u-locks use a slide into place clip, this one used a sort of side clip that I find vastly superior the the other type, this makes it so that you can mount the lock in places where a traditional style clip may not allow you to remove the lock. Another thing I like is the self closing keyhole, many locks have a plastic cover you can turn to cover the keyhole of the lock when not in use, but this model has a little spring loaded door that you push the key through and that closes when you pull the key out, it's nice for keeping moisture and debris out of the lock mechanism. The lock is also well padded, making sure that although rugged and heavy, it isn't going to ding up your bike. The only real cons I have with it are the awkward and bulky style of the actual lock part of the the design, although rarely, its needlessly odd shape and overly large size made it difficult and even impossible to fit in a few places, making the lock pointless, and the other is the BS guarantee that is offered. U-bar locks aren't invincible, and with the right tools (a cordless angle grinder) and a little privacy they can be cut through in less than a minute. Knowing this the makers have written their guarantee to be void if the lock is cut with a power tool, which makes it worthless, so if you were looking at this lock because of its guarantee don't bother.

All in all it's a great lock and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a U-bar lock.

Pros
+ on-bike clip is superior to other locks
+ self- covering keyhole
+ well padded
+ overall sturdy look and feeling

Cons
- Overly bulky and odd shaped Lock
- 100% BS protection guarantee

Lock would be an easy 4 star if they didn't try to trick me with a guarantee that is worded to be worthless.

Very hefty, solid lock. It looks quite nice too. One small problem is that the thick base plate part is so chunky that if I mount it on the saddle, it gets in the way of my thigh when pedalling. I've had to move it down to the main frame of the bike, and there is pretty much only one option in terms of positioning where it won't rub against my legs, so the placement is not very customizable for my bike anyway.
I haven't had any problems with the lock sticking as yet in the few months I've owned it. I sprayed a bit of silicone oil into the lock when I first received it. The size is perfect for going through the frame and wheel of the bike and around a signpost. Not much wiggle room left after that. The smaller version would have been too small, and the longer version should be good for 2 bikes or for locking your bike to a lamppost. I pair this with a kryptonite 7' cable to secure my front wheel and saddle as well. The 4' cable would have been far too short for this.
One other thing that annoys me is the quick release. The part of it which clamps onto the U lock and allows you to attach it to your bike always works loose so when I try to just snap it in place, the attachment just slips and rotates and doesn't lock in place. I have to hold the latch open and slot the attachment into place which is a bit of a hassle and could have been avoided with better design. I'll probably just epoxy the attachment to the U lock at some point to avoid this.

5.0 out of 5 stars O cadeado que tanka o Brasil
Reviewed in Brazil on July 31, 2023
Size: 11.5 x 29.2 cmStyle: Keyed Shackle LockVerified Purchase
Pontos positivos: Ele é robusto, realmente resistente, por isso bem pesado, me programo quando vou precisar usá-lo para não ter que levar peso extra. Achei diversos vídeos gringos testando ele, e em todos a galera só conseguia romper com uma serra elétrica, sabemos que isso aqui em terras tupiniquins não é uma tecnologia muito usada por ladrões de bicicleta, então dessa forma não conseguirão rompelo, mas se atente para o material da base onde você prende a bike, se for bicicletário entorta roda, esse aí é facilmente rompido por serras comuns.

Ponto negativo: essa versão não vem com a extensão para prender as rodas, que é um ponto negativo para quem usa blocagem nas rodas, o material pode ser adquirido no site do Jack Chan, mas, pelo menos para onde eu moro, o frete custa o mesmo preço do cabo extensor, então é melhor ir em uma loja de material de construção, pegar dois metros de cabo de aço e prender com braçadeira, que é basicamente isso o que o cabo extensor é.

Sobre a fechadura: Vi algumas reclamações que ela emperra, realmente, no início a chave é mais difícil de entrar do que os cadeados de 20 reais, no entanto isso se deve à robustez do acessório e o fato de ser novo, comprei grafite e tudo foi resolvido, ficou fácil abrir e fechar o cadeado depois disso, não coloquem óleo de máquina ou qualquer outro óleo, cadeado se lubrifica com grafite.

Conclusão: Parece caro, mas sua bike é muito mais, além disso, investir nisso vai te poupar a dor de cabeça de ter seu bem roubado.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diamond rated lock for a great price

I bought two of these locks for our electric bikes after doing a lot of research. They are diamond rated by SoldSecure, meaning they are about as tough as you can get for a bike lock, and they qualify for bike insurance. In the US, the company insures your bike in the event it's stolen with the lock on. It's a heavy lock, but all similarly rated locks are just as heavy. It's also much less expensive than bigger brand names like Kryptonite. Comes with four keys, and one of the keys has an included light for use in the dark. Great deal in my opinion.
