Our verdict

A U-lock bundled with a looped cable for riders who want to secure a wheel or accessory as well as the frame. Sold Secure certification is a plus, but the maker's own scale still marks it for short stops.

Overview

Kryptonite pairs its Standard U-lock with a double looped braided steel cable here, for fixing a front wheel or accessories alongside the frame. The shackle is hardened steel with a double deadbolt, and a mounting bracket carries the lock.

The reason to buy is a certified lock plus a cable in one package, covering more of the bike than a lone shackle would. The limit is the mid-level rating, and a components row that lists only the keys.

Who it's for

Commuters with quick-release wheels or removable accessories who want one lock set to cover them. Riders whose bikes stay parked for long periods in high-risk areas should consider a higher rated lock.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Sold Secure Silver certified
  • Hardened steel shackle
  • Limited lifetime warranty
Cons
  • Mid-level security rating
  • Components line lists keys only
  • Cable is for wheels, not the frame

Performance notes

The shackle and deadbolt carry the real security, while the looped cable is for securing the front wheel or accessories, so it is a convenience layer rather than the main protection. The cylinder resists picking and drilling, and a sliding cover blocks dirt from the keyway.
