KryptoniteKryptoFlex Security Cable, 2.6FT/4FT/7FT/30FT Long Braided Steel Flex Bike Lock Anti-Theft Cable with Looped Ends for Outdoor Equipment, U-Lock and Padlock, 5mm-10mm Thick,Grey/Orange

Great cable. The 4ft length allows reach to many parts of my bike and still reach back to the lock. I'll be keeping the cable but probably should have gotten the shorter and thinner one to make it easier to carry on the bike while riding.

This cable at 7 foot can lock up wheels , seat and frame quick when going in the local store or using a bathroom at a park only feet from your bike for just a few minutes. It is very light and easy to carry on these rides . No this is not security for a bike left unattended in a repeat location for any period of time . I do like it for times I must quickly have something available to lock the bike up in safe locations where I am nearby that are not part of my normal routine . Like using the bathroom in a bike park for less then ten minutes where you could hear someone . Using a motion alarm is a huge plus with it . Any more then that and you must break out the u lock too or bike chains rated at gold level . I now prefer them over the U locks because my new fat bikes have 5 inch tires on them the U bolt cannot go around one as their only 4 inches wide . Expect to pay $100 for a chain and still need a cable or 2 for accessories plus they are heavy , close to 15 pounds but if your leaving a bike in your garage or a rack at the apartment building unattended for long periods of time it is the best way to be sure it is as safe as possible .This is a very light cable that is suppose to be stronger than most due to being intertwined . A large set of bolt cutters could snap it . There are ways you can learn to wrap it so it is harder to get a set of cutters on it . I like it very much but only to keep honest people honest or where you can be back out and on the bike before a thief could react and get a set of cutters to take it . If I were to purchase again I would look for one about 5/8 of a inch which I noticed was on my other bike from another company with the same construction but this is so light I am ok with it for what I want to use it for .

Keeps my bike safe!

Should have read the measurements. It's thinner than I thought, and I ordered from Warehouse and it was the 2' version, not specified in the listing.

On a 60cm bike with a very high seatpost this is long enough to lock up my saddle, rear wheel, and Vector pedal (left side only). I lock my bike with an Abus Bordo X-Plus (like a U lock but the U is in flexible segments instead of a rigid U). I put the lock around the front wheel and frame, and this short cable is enough to add a little deterrent to the bike components. I don't have any theft protection on the cockpit beyond the brake and shifter cables. As it stands, someone would have to use tools to take most things off my bike - they could get the skewers - nothing else comes to mind...I can fit this cable in my back jeans pocket, but also I am 6'4" so IDK whether that would be true for smaller people. I wear 34" waist jeans.I'm still searching for a way to easily/quickly carry this on the bike but so far IDK. Also fits in a jersey pocket. The velcro cable tie is a nice touch - keeps it from springing open when coiled in a pocket. I wish it was smaller. I wish there was no theft in the world.BTW I'm sure most people know this already, but just in case this is the only text you ever read on locking up a bike: the trick to getting the most out of a double-loop cable is feeding it through one of its own loops. One end is looped around a wheel or saddle rail or whatever, and the other loop goes through the lock. That way you get double the coverage - or half the cable length - as you would putting your main lock through both loops of the cable.HTH,Michael

Great quality

This cable is the perfect companion to my Kryptonite Evolution Mini-5 U-Lock. It provides that extra layer of protection for securing wheels or accessories, giving me even more peace of mind. You really can’t go wrong with Kryptonite if you need a reliable solution for added bike security.

Great quality, spent the money because no one was going to be able to get through this and it’s worth it. Long enough to lock all three of my bikes. Worth the cost
