You thread the sleeved chain through the wheel and frame, loop it around the rack, and turn the key.
This bicycle chain lock is a metal link chain run through a soft fabric sleeve, with a keyed barrel lock and a set of keys. The chain stays flexible enough to wrap around a post or rack while the fabric cover keeps the links from scratching your frame as you thread them through.
You loop it through the wheel and the frame, pass it around a fixed point, and close the barrel lock with the key. Length and link weight are the two things you choose: shorter chains stay light for a quick stop, longer runs reach around wider racks or a second bike, and the heavier link option puts more metal between the bike and a passer-by.
Key Benefits
-
Sleeved metal chain A metal link chain runs inside a soft fabric sleeve so it bends around posts and racks easily.
-
Frame-friendly cover The fabric sleeve keeps the links from scratching paint or chipping the frame as you thread it.
-
Keyed barrel lock A small cylindrical barrel lock closes the chain and opens with the supplied keys.
-
Length to match the spot Runs from 65cm for a tight post up to 210cm to reach around wide racks, gates or two bikes.
-
Visible deterrent A chain on the frame signals effort to a passer-by and steers them toward an easier target.
-
Lubricant option Oil is offered to keep the lock barrel and links turning smoothly through wet and dusty seasons.
Best for: locking a bike, scooter or gate to a fixed rack or post in the street, at work or at home.
Why It Works
This is a practical everyday chain lock rather than a heavy security chain. The sleeved links bend around odd shapes a rigid bar cannot reach, the fabric keeps your paint clean, and the keyed barrel holds the loop closed. You pick the length and link weight that fit where you park, then lock the frame and wheel to something solid.
Quick Product Facts: Type: bicycle chain lock; Chain: metal links in a soft fabric sleeve; Lock: keyed cylindrical barrel with keys; Lengths: 65cm to 210cm; Link options: extra thick or heavyweight thickened; Add-on: lubricating oil available; Use: bike, scooter and gate.
How It Fits Your Routine
Carry the shorter chain looped in a bag for daily stops, then wrap the frame and wheel to a rack whenever you leave the bike. The barrel lock turns shut with the key so a quick errand stays quick.
For an overnight spot or a shared yard, the longer chain reaches around a gate or post and stays put. A drop of the lubricating oil now and then keeps the barrel turning through rain and grit.
Wipe the sleeve down when it picks up street grime so the fabric and links stay clean between uses.
FAQ
How do I choose the length? Measure around the fixed point plus your frame and wheel. A post near the wall takes 65cm, while a wide rack or two bikes needs the longer 165cm to 210cm runs.
What is the difference between extra thick and heavyweight thickened? Both add metal to the links. The heavyweight thickened version is the bulkier, heavier option, while the extra thick version stays a bit lighter to carry.
Does the chain scratch my frame? No. The fabric sleeve covers the metal so the links slide against the frame without chipping the paint.
How does it lock? A keyed cylindrical barrel lock closes the chain, and the keys are supplied to open it.
