OxfordScreamer Alarm OF229 Disc Lock

Works well and does the job, it's not ridiculously noisy but it makes a noise, which at the end of the day, is what it's meant to do. The main question is: Is this item worth the money? I got it for £25, and I believe it's definitely worth that much. Worthwhile purchase for someone who is just starting out on bikes and wants some cheap but good security.

Great theft deterrent and practical disc lock, or just a great deterrent for kids touching your bike, which has already been seen in action outside my house when pesky teenagers decided to try messing with it, works a treat.Seen some people saying it's too sensitive, but I have not had that problem at all.Comes with two sets of batteries, 6 batteries in each set, first set of batteries have so far lasted 5 weeks of constant use and still going strong, this is fitted and armed all the time unless I'm riding, even fitted at home in my shed overnight, and anyway the LR44 button batteries are cheap as chips to buy, I bought 20 Duracell's for £3.99 with free postage, enough for 3 battery changes.

I have just taken delivery of this lock and sure enough it did not work when I first tried it out as the batteries were flat. Fitted spare batteries and is now working, so I have now lost up to 9 month use already, Why is it they advise you to transport it unlocked when they dispatch it locked so it is activated and flattens the batteries, I will tell you why! when it is unlocked you can't shut the lock cover flap so it would not fit in the packaging and also they supply a storage pouch which again is useless as it won't fit when it is in the unlocked position. The alarm volume is a bit like my broadband, as it is described as the famous up to 100 db and it definitely is not that loud, I have heard a small child scream louder, this alarm is more of a shout than a screamer. Will give ago and see how it goes!

First , Great lock alarm, but these are defiantly old stock as the batteries that are installed are dead and have swelled up and pushed the plastic with the connections away, (slightly damaged) but thankfully still works , & lucky enough, it came with spear batteries . seems good quality, don't think this is water proof, I will be making a seal around the battery case my self.The SELLER needs to check the batteries in these alarms before selling them, as the swelling of the batteries bend the plastic were the connections are, and if left longer, they will leak acid and then you will have a problem.All said, this seems a good lock and alarm.Tge only reason why i gave this 4 stars is The batteries that have slightly damaged the internals through swelling.This needs to be addressed by the seller and sorted out.

Works great but not as loud as I thought

I have had two of these items, one was a replacement as the first one was a faulty product, when the disk lock got cold, and the disk would either do the following;Rapidly beep when locked, the noise would not turn off.When the alarm locked properly without freaking out, the alarm (when alarmed) would beep 4 times, and not do anything else after, sometimes it would go off but the alarm would not go on for longer than 2-5 seconds.The alarm would be completely dead at times.I heard Oxford was decent but from experience of this one item, I feel like this product is a big downfall.Side note, at all times I kept the lock in the black bag when the disk was not in use (for being on the bike) and the spare batteries was kept in the packaging.Would be great of Oxford could sort this product out.

This is a great product from Oxford. Easy to use and has the advantage that when you move the front wheel it bleeps 4 times - thus no driving away with the disc lock still on. So simple yet so effective! Alarm is loud enough to warn opportunist thieves and the whole thing packs away into a small pouch. Good poduct!!

Gr8 item did annoy my neighbours working it out but it'll keep them crims away for sure well worth the money gonna buy 1 more for sure

Bon article et me donne une protection supplémentaire à ma moto contre les voleurs. Alarme sonore très aigu et très sensible au moindre petit mouvement/déplacement. .

Lo consiglio funziona

Wahre wie beschrieben,super schnelle Lieferung. Danke

Por ahora muy contento , trae pilar de repuesto , funda y llaves de repuesto . Lo elegí antes que otros por traer tapa para la cerradura ( previene la entrada de agua ) y por la marca ya que Oxford es una buena marca en accesorios de moto . Por el precio que tiene no se puede pedir más .

I recently had my bike of 14 years stolen. This unfortunate even has led to my purchasing a much more expensive bike than I had. In order to protect my new investment I was on the lookout for something more than a u lock or cut resistant cable lock. I stumbled across this when a random search brought up motorcycle bike alarms. I haven't seen this type of lock on bikes in my area and am sure a lot of people don't initially think of this versus the traditional cable or u locks. In addition to this level of security I also bought a frame mounted AXA Defender bike lock. This product arrived today and I can't contain my excitement on how well it works!!!The oxford Screamer Disc Lock will definitely be a deterrent to thieves eyeing up my bike. It's sensitivity is perfect and not finicky at all. It clips through the brake disc with one beep, then you depress the button to activate it or "arm" it. I tested it by moving the bike briefly for a second and it gave off "four warning" beeps. I continued to move the bike and let out a relentless "very loud" alarm. I am extremely pleased that it does exactly what it claims to do! You won't be disappointed and confident in the security of your bike.
