I purchased this lock when I purchased a Thule bicycle rack thinking that this would integrate with the rack. I was wrong. This lock is way over priced at $40 or so and a similar lock with a thicker cable for probably 1/3 of the price or less can be had from Onguard or Kryptonite. This is a typical key cable lock that gives minimal security. I purchased it to at least lock the bikes to our rack so they could not easily be lifted, all of course when we travel with our bikes and keep them in view. This lock is not meant for security as a cable cutter will easily cut through.

This is a great item to secure a single bike. Unfortunately it is not long enough to secure two bikes. I highly recommend, easy to secure.

This is a good quality lock as cable locks go (remember ALL cable locks are a minor deterrent). I bought it specifically to lock bikes to my Thule Hitching Post rack, and I selected the Thule so I could buy matching lock cylinders for this and my other Thule lock. However, this lock does not have a swappable cylinder, which neither Amazon nor the Thule website seem to tell you, so I'm glad I waited to buy a set. It could also be about a foot longer since it's kind of sold for use with Thule racks, and a little more length would be necessary to get it through two bike frames, all four wheels, and the loop on the Hitching Post. Still, it's worth the price if you're aware of the drawbacks.
