Frequently Asked Questions
It rates 7 out of 10 on Kryptonite's own scale and holds Sold Secure Bicycle Gold. The 13 mm shackle is hardened steel built to resist bolt cutters and leverage, a double deadbolt resists twist attacks, and the disc cylinder is pick and drill resistant. It is a serious everyday lock for a good commuter.
The KryptoFlex 410 is 120 cm of 10 mm braided steel with a loop at each end and no lock of its own. Thread it through your wheels or saddle, feed both loops over your U-lock shackle and lock up, so the whole bike is tied together. It works with a U-lock, disc lock or padlock.
Only for short stops where the bike stays in view. Kryptonite rate the KryptoFlex 1018 combo cable at 1 out of 10 and class cable locks as deterrents. For a bike left for hours in a public rack, lock the frame with a U-lock like the Evolution Mini-9 and use a cable for the wheels.
