    Ok, so it’s for a Motor bike, but I have one and it’s a great addition to your Shed security.

    Begs the question why the branded ones are 10 times the price!

    I bought one of these before too.. but lost it!

    Bought two.

    If I ever need to bludgeon someone, they’ll be my weapon of choice, they weigh a ton

    But unless they have a sold secure silver/gold rating there pretty pointless as most insurance company’s would void the insurance if your bike was stolen.
    Good as a secondary lock though.

    That’s what I was thinking, I’m guessing they don’t – can anyone confirm?

    Just be aware it’ll only deter a poorly equipped/amateur thief (it’ll almost certainly come off with boltcutters faster than it comes off with the key). Not pointless though at £10.

    Two of them chained together around my bikes. Can’t hurt.

    Think ill get a couple in the morning.. My m+s policy states they just have to be locked to an immovable object.. I think!
    Pretty sure it doesn’t state it has to be a gold/silver rated lock.. I’m sure someone can confirm though!

    I’ve had one for a couple of years. The sleeve is attached to the chain at one end but can ride up at the other, like a rolled up sleeve. Also, the padlock loop can only fit a single link, so has to be used like a noose. That aside, they are worth £10.

    Probably deter the amateur.
    Chained together? Will probably just cart the two away and deal with lock in private.
    I had this in my lock up in Edinburgh

    Large Tesco,s did have them, but beware, the lock sometimes jams, a bit of wd40 helps.

    Ive got one in the van for when i leave the bike in the back, not very often though.
