They have a 15mm chain now called the Legend. Look it up. It’s insane.

[@WesterStarThunder]

I had a horseshoe lock from Kryptonite in the 70's for my peddle bike. Glad to see they are still around. Looks like they still make a great product.

A tip for anyone considering one of the larger and less mobile chain sets. If you plan on using it daily at home or at work, you can keep the chain and lock attached at that location, around a pole, fence, etc. for your use to avoid having to carry the chain and lock with you.

[@Alex-he8gx]

Really bad advice! Thieves are known to cut those chains at night when nobody is around, replacing broken chain links with zip ties. When you arrive the next day, lock your bike and leave for work, they steal your bike in a matter of seconds!

[@Dienow3xw]

@@Alex-he8gx why the hell would anyone replace the links with zip ties only to steal it the next day, when they have the opportunity right there? That's the stupidest idea I've ever heard

[@Alex-he8gx]

@trollface3240 this thread was about leaving the chain in public overnight. The bike would obviously be with you at home at the time duh. This is a common stealing tactic here in London

[@DBZHGWgamer]

​@@Alex-he8gxit would be incredibly obvious if a chain was cut like that, the nylon would be visibly damaged...

[@Alex-he8gx]

@DBZHGWgamer not if you pull down the cover before cutting

Excellent review, superb presentation. Right to the point and no background music !

[@qx4n9e1xp]

I was looking at the Evolution, but you sold me on that New York chain with the pass-thru loop. Very glad you explained the purpose of that, because it's exactly what I didn't know I needed! It gives the flexibility of chaining up your bike/e-bike in both "B" shape with the pass-thru, or "O" shape like the traditional chain.

Got the 10 out of 10. That’s what my scooter’s trunk is for. Their disc break alarm is also the perfect accompaniment.

[@james787324]

I use Kryptonite Evolution 4 Mini (55cm) 10mm chain. It's probably the best portability to weight ratio while still having adequate security for the price of my Escooter. I went for a chain over a D-Lock because I can wrap the chain 1 or 2 times around the frame-neck so there is no chance a thief can take the front wheel off and slip the lock through the gap. And if I find something more sturdier to lock it to then I have extra available length. All considering my Escooter is worth $500, not $5000.

I use Kryptonite Evolution 4 Mini (55cm) for my bicycle

[@bobabooey7088]

The New York one we have is heavy but my $2000 e-bike is there when I need it. Nice insurance policy included

[@outlawgt3045]

I just got my Kryptonite lock and chain in the mail and it looks and feels solid.

[@patpending8134]

All vulnerable to cutting by angle grinders, even battery-powered ones. You didn't mention that at all. "Overview" was stretching it - was more like a QVC presntation of "features and benefits"of products, with no downside beyond thier weight.

[@aussie8114]

But how easy is it to drill out the lock cylinder.

[@ant9771]

I paid like $200 and now can't use my bike. The fricken lock is siezed up and stuck on my bike. SMH.

[@donpet8258]

The real test .. how long does it take you to cut thru chain with a portable wheel cutter ?. Thats what they use ! Test the 10/10 chain.ill guess 4m

[@stevensteven3417]

between 30-60 seconds

[@misconduct6845]

@@stevensteven3417 can the keeper chain be bolt cutted?

[@stevensteven3417]

@@misconduct6845 yes

[@misconduct6845]

@@stevensteven3417 with like the medium one or the big one without any support from ground and pure strength? I did see a review being impenetrable but I had to make sure

[@stevensteven3417]

@@misconduct6845 You can cut it with the big one with pure strength in seconds. I would strongly recommend at least the Evolution and a chain. U-Locks can be busted open with leverage tools like a long metal bar and other tools.

[@dylanmorrison951]

What about the new york legand? I see it on there sight but noticed its got round silver chains and not the 6 sided gold ones.

[@Doc.Holiday]

Thief used a portable hydraulic bolt cutter on my K-Keeper and bike was silently stolen while I was asleep in my RV only 10’ feet away.

[@ro63rto]

None of these chains are advisable for any half decent bicycle in London England. The scrotes here go around with portable angle grinders. Best stick to Hiplok D1000 or Hiplok X1 / X3 d-locks which are the only (so far) grinder resistant locks available. Just make sure to lock it onto something big or sturdy.

[@AnnoyedAlligator-vf4be]

Thanx for information w zero bs that is worthless

[@ephraimcampos5232]

The little ulocks can be cut easily with a Milwaukee bandsaw the big ulock can be cut with the same bandsaw but that shii takes like 30 mins 😆

[@dedz]

Which size is the yellow one? 39 or 60 inches?

[@juanitoraymundo53]

Motor cycle? oh. I use the evolution chain for my Bike when I go to the store or be away from it for a while. Or I use it to lock up multiple bikes that are outside.

[@1k1ngst0n]

excellent review!

[@ProperSendoff]

I don't think thieves have a cutter for this one BuB!!!😅

[@user-vu5pw4nu5d]

I have a question I bought my daughter a bicycle and one of these security chains that was advised by a campus policeman after 4 days of use now the chain does not want to open. I don't understand what could have happened but this chain is brand new and so is the bike and now she can't use it.

[@NS-hs6lt]

I’ve heard of thieves super gluing lock channels. That way they can come back later and cut the lock when less people are around.

[@christianpiril474]

That does not work bikes get stolen a whole bunch with these locks

They didnt actually invent the u lock!

You seem quite sure of your comment with your "exclamation mark!" yet, suspiciously unwilling to take another 10 seconds and tell us who did. Consequently, you have posted a very low credibility comment.
