Sadly my Bike was stolen
The lock arrived promptly and the instructions for setting the combination are clear and easy to follow. Sadly my bike was stolen whilst secured by this lock so I really can't recommend its security features.It appears that the thief snipped the cable with tin shears or pliers; in other words with just a handheld tool. To my mind a bike lock should be tougher than this. At least strong enough to make stealing a bike in a very public place a bit more difficult.In future I would probably want to back up a cable lock with a steel U Lock.

Fair price and a good deterent.
Cheap and cheerful. I have seen reviews showing the lock can be cut with bolt cropped, to be honest my purpose is a child's bike, if someone has bolt croppers at the ready I suspect they are hunting for something dearer than my sons bike so I will accept that risk for the price.The colour is vivid and makes an obvious deterent, which is all I am looking for. The universal bracket for fixing to the bike makes this ideal so my son can click the lock on when not in use and ride without a lock hoocked over one arm as he rides!Fair product for the price, it's not going to stop a determined thief but will stop an opertunitist. You get what you pay for. I think this is a fair price for a reasonable deterent.

Breaks easily
After a couple of uses the cable broke free from the locking mechanism (see pic). Thieves don’t need bolt cutters to break this lock - they just need to pull hard enough.

Great
Lovely smart looking lock, very easy to aet up! Rotation is a little stiff which is expected with new product, but it seems stiffer than i would expect. Love it wish it came in purple!

Cheap, Warped, Avoid.
Had it for 2 weeks then something inside must have warped and I could no longer use the device, thank god work has a indoor bike area, DO NOT BUY THIS, cheap Chinese made stuff, not worth taking the chance just for the money side of it, I have just ordered a D lock. If I could rate 0 stars I would.

easy to fit to bike
Item as described, easy to fit to bike. We didnt use it that much as the bike was stolen, but I'm sure that wasn't just the fault of the lock...

Okay cheap lock but falls apart over two years
We bought several of these for the children's bikes. Attempts have been made to cut through the cable -on one occasion almost completely through- but nothing has been stolen. The locks are kept permanently outside on the bikes for two years. However the combination mechanism has failed on a number of locks, e.g. you can now only turn one number, on two locks the combination mechanism has fallen apart, and on two other locks you can pull the cable out of the lock (exact as shown in a picture in another review). The locks worked well when new but don't last.
