Kryptonite Kryptolok Series 2 Mini Bicycle U-Lock (3.25) Review

The lock works very well and exactly as one would expect. It is easy to lock/unlock with the key, fits both my tire and frame when locking my bike to something, and is compact. It is a little heavy but that's as expected given it is a strong lock.

The bad
- - -
I ride with my lock attached to my bike frame with the accompanying attachment. The problem is, this attachment, while holding the lock secure, does not easily release the lock. I have to pull very hard to get the lock to release, and, since it is inside the frame of my bike, this means when it gives way, it smashes into my bike frame or, more commonly, crushes the hand, finger, or wrist that is between it and the bike frame. I cannot count the number of times I have smashed my fingers between my bike and the lock when the lock finally gives way. This morning my wrist got pinched between the lock and my bike, leaving an inch-long welt with a small amount of bleeding.

Don't get this lock if you want to attach your lock to your bike.

5 stars for the lock.
1 star for the attachment.

Update: I was just talking to a friend the other day who has a Kryptonite lock and he brought up the topic of their locks and, more specifically, how the attachment piece often leads to crushed fingers or scuffing up the bike frame. Otherwise, he thought everything about the lock was excellent.
