Summary: Good but rusted 2008-11-17
Comment: A friend of mine and I bought our own versions of this lock at about the same time, and within a week of locking them outside every night both locks have rusted to the point where you have to expend a good deal of force just to get them out.
On the other hand no one has stolen my bike since I got this whereas that just simply isn't the case for some people I know who bought cheaper locks

Summary: Lock beyonf lock 2008-10-30
Comment: This is a real piece of protection. Heavy and strong. It is not to carry with you. You will have to leave it where you want to lock your precious bike. You will have peace of mind but not completely, because you can only lock the the bike's frame and one wheel. You will need a cable to lock the other wheel and or the saddle. And most of the cable do not offer very good protection, it is light protection at the most.

Summary: kryptonite fahgettaboudit Lock anti theft protection 2008-08-26
Comment: purchased this lock after my bike was stolen, primarily due to $4500 antitheft protection that comes with lock. worth noting that my old bike was stolen while locked up with a heavy duty Krytonite chain lock.
Anyway, received the lock, seems solid enough, but was a disappointed after reading all of the various conditions and qualifications related to the anti theft protection, which basically renders the protection worthless. First of all, they only pay for the deductible for your insurance not for the replacement of your bike, so you need to have insurance in the first place for this to have any value. Secondly, you need to provide so much back up information: bike registration, bike receipt, lock receipt, etc where it makes it very cumbersome process to even apply for the protection in the first place. Then there is the rigourous post theft requirements: report teft to police within 72 hours, mail notice to Kryptonite within 7 days, report to insurance company. most of these aren't too bad, but the one thing that you need to do which is likely not possible is that you have to send them the broken lock. so if the thief just takes the lock, which they did in both instances where I had bikes stolen, you are out of luck. So basically colecting on the anti-theft protection requires that the thief is nice enough to leave the lock behind.
The moral of this story is that Krytonite's anti-theft protection offer is worthless and should not be a consideration in purchasing one of thier locks. as far as their locks being the best and most theft resistant available, not sure this is true given my past experience.

Summary: Ridiculously Heavy 2008-08-18
Comment: I bought this online, not taking weight into consideration. I got the larger one because I wanted it to be easy to lock up. It is heavy duty, so if it keeps my bike from being stolen, I'm thrilled. I have 1 big qualm with this product, and two small ones. The biggest is the weight factor, it's so heavy, I don't ever want to bring it with me. My more minor grievances with this lock are that within the first month, the lock cover unscrewed on one side, and then fell off. Not a big deal, it's just there to keep dirt out of the keyhole. The other one is the mount. It is extremely difficult to mount and unmount the lock due to the fact that the hard plastic and metal do not easily slide across each other. I finally made this task easier by greasing the area where the two parts mount together.
So, if you want an awesome lock, go for the smallest one that will do the trick. I might possibly buy the smaller version of this lock, for portability and to cut excessive weight. It weights about half as much as my bike. There's some perspective.
