Retractable Cable Lock

Worked great for securing luggage on trains in europe! I understand that this lock is merely a deterrent for theft, not very protective against it if someone has a tool to cut the cord, but all we wanted was to lock our luggage to the luggage rack so a snatch and run situation would not happen. Very easy to use, we could attach and remove it very quickly so we wouldn’t hold anyone else up on the train.

nice and light for travel. Does not prevent from stealing but maybe slow it down.

First off, this is not going to stop a hardened thief. Anyone carrying a pair of wire cutters could cut right through the cable. I would only suggest this for brief periods when you walk away from your bike. Not for overnight parking or longer term storage. I got the green model to make it stand out in my black saddlebags. Oddly, pricing varies by color. The combination reset switch is extremely hard to move, so hard that I initially thought my unit was defective. But I finally figured out the technique. So don't give up if you order this. The cable is roughly two feet long and that is more than adequate to secure a helmet to a bike. It has three dials which enable combinations up to 1,000. Someone with enough time on their hands could conceivably try every one until they hit it. A 4th dial would solve that, but as I said - this is not a long term security solution. I really just needed it for quick stops for lunch, gas ups, or other brief exits from the bike. It locks and releases easily, and is lightweight and takes up hardly any room. It's not heavy duty, but will do the job briefly which is all I need.

We used these locks on all our luggage, including carry-ons, and I highly recommend them for anyone seeking secure locks. We also paired them with zip ties to secure the zipper to the bag's handle, preventing any movement. They worked very well for us.

Lock broke first time I used it. The string doesn’t lock in.

Bought these for a trip to Europe. They were recommended for the train as you’re sometimes not able to keep an eye on your luggage. We did end up using them and the comfort of knowing our luggage was secure made the purchase worth it. They were very easy to “code” and to secure around your luggage and train rails.

The long metal cable makes this ideal for locking luggage or using as a bike lock. Very durable and excellent quality.

This lock is amazing if you are in a hurry and only if you lock it up in public places with cameras watching you because it's not built for Max durability or does not have military grade technology protection for the cable. I paid $12 in my honest opinion I think it's worth for the size, durability, I think it's worth around 8 not 12 but if you're in a hurry and you park your bike in a public places in front of cameras, this lock is really good for quick run and run out action. As you can see in the image, I do not post the image to downgrade the product but I bought this before I bought a cable and a vibration alarm for my bicycle and at the time this cable lock was all I had. That was a bad idea to have this if that's all you have because if you're in a city like me that is growing daily with thieves that that get away with vandalizing your stuff right front cameras, you're going to need a thicker more durable cable lock and a vibration alarm, and also good knowledge of law enforcement if you use self defense weapons. This locks cable broke so easy, it was not even the cable that broke but the cable head. This lock can be easily fixed, because of the way it broke but if this is all I have my back is very under protected. Don't forget that no matter how many locks and cables you have, thieves always have knives and they love to go for the tires so you going to need something like I a motorcycle tarp to cover up the bicycle as well. There's some parts that are quick and easy but just be prepared to always watch your bicycle when you lock up, because the best defense for your bicycle is a baseball bat with law enforcement respect for proper use AKA go for the legs. I would buy this again but only after I had a vibration alarm and a durable cable lock which I now have. In the image, everything still works properly except for the fact the cable needs to be repaired and maybe I can have a guy down the road fix it at his car shop.

Product works as intended

Super practico para para asegurar tu mochila. Por lo regular me gusta llevar una mochila a la playa para ahi guardar mis lentes, telefono, cartera, bocina, llaves, cambio, camara, bloqueadores, toalla etc El problema es que cuando viajo solo siempre tengo pendiente de dejarla sola cuando me meto a nadar al mar o te paras a caminar, al baño o a equis cosa. Vi este candado para amarrar cosas y fue la solucion perfecta, le metes un candado a los cierres de tu mochila y por el candado le pasas el cable y lo puedes fijar al poste de la palapa o a tu camastro. Es imposible que abran tu mochila o se la lleven (Ojo ocupas un candado de viaje y este candado con cable) de esta manera puedes asegurar decenas de cosas. Obvio esto para un ambiente turistico, el cable es delgado pero bastante fuerte, imposible de tronar en un entorno de este tipo, el cable es bastante largo, da para rodear postes y el seguro por combinacion es muy bueno. Trae un boton retractil. Yo creo sirve para viajes, oficina, escuela etc Excelente producto, totalmente recomendable.

I bought this for a business trip after reading that it had topped the recommended list for locks - it's absolutely fantastic! Very easy to use, and allow me to secure my suitcase to the metal luggage rack during my train journeys, and then to the handrails in the hotel room when I went out. You can adjust the cable to whatever length is needed, and it's very strong. Highly recommended and great value for money!

Unheimlich vielseitig einsetzbares Schloß mit dünnem Stahlseil, das es möglich macht, Türen und Klappen zu sichern, die mit einem herkömmlichen Schloß oder Riegel nicht zu schließen sind. Es ist natürlich auch hervorragend für Gepäck geeignet. Es ist vielleicht nicht gegen schweres Gerät eines Einbrechers oder Diebes die beste Lösung, aber im Alltag die Lösung für viele kleine Dinge, damit ihnen keine "Beine wachsen". Übrigens wird das Schloß nicht immer in blau geliefert, die Farbe variiert. Ich habe z.B. ein orangenes Schloß bekommen und bin sehr damit zufrieden.

Good value and security.
