Recently, I have focused a bit more on security since my colleague’s bikes stole.
I just bought *BL SELECT* ottolock hexband cinch lock.
A flat wire lock.
I use an U-lock, but I have looked for a lighter and smaller lock.
Size comparison U-lock and Otto.
It can be taken in a jacket pocket.
I put my U-lock in hip pocket and the pants are slipping down a lot of times, so I am satisfied with taking in a jacket pocket.
I compared the weights.
Much lighter than a U-lock.
Most important feature is the strength. I don’t know exactly, but I think U-lock is stronger than Otto. The hex band means six-ply stainless steel plates.
My favorite part is the dial lock system. I carry lots of keys and don’t want any more keys.
It can lock 2 bikes at the same time! Pretend that you’re a gentleman.
It costs a bit high but balanced the weight and strength.
I think that it is really user-friendly. It’s natural because made by road racers!
For me, “Made in USA” is one of my favorite.
