Summary: This lock WILL NOT protect your bike.
Comment: I wish I had read the reviews before I bought the lock. I bought this lock because the bike shop recommended.
My new road bike was stolen using this lock in daylight in south beach area of San Francisco. The bike thief will spy you and cut your lock off. Please remember that never leave your bike out even if it's locked.
This lock WILL NOT protect your bike.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Thick and well made- lock = quality
Comment: You won't "trick" this open by applying pressure to open while spinning the tumblers like cheaper combo locks in this style.
After 8 months of use tumblers are still easy to spin and the coating has held up perfectly.
Worth it. Thank you.

Summary: yeah, this is disappointing
Comment: first: always know that a cable lock is not meant to be your primary lock if you lock up in an area where bikes are ever stolen. ever.
the doberman was intended to be a back-up lock, locking my front wheel to my frame with an OnGuard u-lock locking the rear wheel and frame to the fence or post or whatever. however, today my OnGuard u-lock failed me (bent 3 keys in the lock trying to lock it when i got home from work before giving up on the lock altogether-- i have two working keys left, but don't trust them-- there is nothing saying they won't bend and fail also, and i'm glad i discovered the problem when i was at home where i could get to my extra keys. glad i still had them. now i know why they're included). i brought my bike inside instead of locking it to the fence as i normally do.
ten minutes after getting home, i realized i needed to take a quick trip to the office supply store, so i went back out, this time w/ this OnGuard cable (no keys necessary! yay!) and an old kryptonite u-lock i borrowed from a friend. there was no fence-- just a post to which i could lock either the front end of the bike or the rear end. it's not a fancy bike, not the most attractive or theft-inviting thing on the street, so i locked the front end with the kryptonite, figuring that if i was quick, the cable would be enough of a deterrent to keep anyone from messing with the rear wheel while i picked up my supplies. i was in the office supply store for no more than 20 minutes, but when i came out, guess whose combination cable lock was smashed and whose rear wheel was missing? guess who was stranded at the office supply store for nearly 2 hours while she waited for a friend with a car to come pick her and her frame up? guess who was incredibly irritated for the rest of the night and probably will continue to be irritated until she can replace the missing wheel?
a passing tow truck driver stopped and told me how people break these locks-- it's depressingly simple (basically a pull and a kick, and the teeth in the combination shatter like candy).
don't get this lock unless you live in a low-theft, low-vandalism area. and even then, i'd think twice.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Nice, strong, smoothe
Comment: Very sturdy. Easy to set combination. I look forward to years of bike security.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Use this and get your bike STOLEN
Comment: This product will NOT stop your bike from being stolen. My bike was
stolen using this lock in broad daylight in a high traffic area of San
Francisco. This lock will only stop a person with no tools. Bolt
cutters go through this lock like a hot knife through butter. It won't slow
a theif down more than 2 seconds.
