Hiplok Z LOK

Bought to secure my bike onto car bike rack and does the job perfectly. Fits in a few seconds and although it looks flimsy, it is actually very tough and secure.

Really handy café lock. Great because of how light it is. It is only a deterrent - if anyone has any sort of cutters they would get through this very quickly, but it's great if you're just popping into a shop (I have it attached to my bike so I can always pop into the supermarket on the way home) and just want to stop someone from walking past and wandering off with your bike. Downside is definitely that it's very easy to break, and it won't last forever, but it was cheap and cheerful, so I'm happy!

First off let’s get a few facts out of the way for this lock. Yes you could in theory undo it relatively quickly with a couple of pins / nails. I would never in my wildest dreams lock up my £1500 worth of road bike with it for any length of time (other than a quick cafe stop with me not far away). And yes I could cut through it easily using one of the good quality cutters in my tool box. Now we have all of that out of the way where are you likely to use this lock? I purchased it for my daughter to throw in her school bag and lock up her scooter in the school bike sheds. It stops the one idiot who is likely to try and ride off on an unlocked scooter / bike (plus scooters are a pain to lock as you can’t pass a cable lock through them like you can with a bike frame). It is also great in preventing the opportunist theft of skiing gear, motorbike / cycle helmets, luggage etc. It will never stop a prepared thief and should not be relied upon to do so. In fact even thick expensive insurance approved locks won’t stop a determined and prepared thief. This lock does exactly what it is meant to do which is secure something from an unprepared thief and should stop them from walking / riding off with your stuff. With any luck they will choose the easier unlocked items next to yours instead. It isn’t going to be broken by hand in a hurry unless you are Hercules. If you intend to leave your hard earned bike / items for any length of time, or out of sight then this is not the product for you. Otherwise it works well for the reasons that I bought it for and it is very lightweight. Finally I purchased the single lock and it only came with one key (2 would have been great even if it cost a couple of pounds more).

These stopped the thieves getting the bikes off the car roof! They got open the Thule carrier but couldn't get past these. Easy to use and small/light enough to tuck into a pack when out on the MTB.

These do not not lock as you can easily pull them open and the plastic on both snapped immediately. I can’t return them as I no longer have the original packaging. I’ve had some of these in the past and they were great. These are awful and I have no way to contact the supplier so I’m out of pocket. I’ll never order or recommend these again.

Easy to use and effective

Let me start by saying great lock and great quality. Very happy with what I received. I have only given 3 stars as I bought 2 locks one for me and one for the wife but soon worked out one key works for both locks. This is a potential security risk if using as a main lock.

Obviously this is no deterrent for a bike thief. A normal pair of hand cutters could defeat this. But the best lock is the one you have with you. so small and light there is no reason not to carry it. Ideal for if you weren't planning to stop but then need to. For popping into a shop particularly when you can keep an eye on your bike from inside. It will stop an opportunist thief walking off with your pride and joy but get a serious lock for when you need to leave your bike unattended. Chain or U/D locks over cable locks them are easily cut in seconds. Check YouTube for locks tested to destruction.

This is a simple zip-tie lock to deter grab and go theft. This is *not* to be used unattended on its own. A simple use-case will be to use it at a cafe where you have eyes on the bike at all times or to tie up your front wheels to the frame in conjunction with a proper bike lock. In this case, it is a nice compact lock to bring along everywhere.

余計な物が一切ないシンプルさ。これで充分と思います。鍵が1個しかないので失くさない様にしないとね。

Works as described, quality of material seem sturdy, I use this to secure my side bag on my motorcycle which can easily be detached from its bracket.

Comodo da trasportare. Peccato non venga fornita una chiave di scorta.

Un prodotto essenziale per un motociclista. L'ho comprato per poter legare il mio casco alla moto durante le soste brevi. Facile da utilizzare, veloce e per nulla ingombrante. I miei giri in moto ora risultano più comodi da quando posso lasciare il casco legato al portapacchi. Ovviamente non è un prodotto con un grado di resistenza elevatissimo e non lo consiglierei per soste molto lunghe.
