What customers say about "Key Specs"
OnGuard Bulldog Combination U-Lock (LK8012C) Cable Combo
  • Infinitely better than the Kryptonite comparable combo U lock, the wheels feel like quality and they have never jammed or not worked despite the correct combo.
  • Еhis lock is keyless, so awsome, secure, well made, convenient, and beautiful, works well.
  • The combo lock is easy to use. The dials seem to move fluidly. Setting the combo was simple.
  • I live and work in Egypt and brought this with me. It works well and is very secure and safe. The combination is easier than an extra key to carry around.
  • Nice combo of loop lock and a cable to allow you to secure your bike to any place.
Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit U-Lock
  • This is a seriously heavy lock offering top-notch security and peace of mind when locking up your ride.
  • People have noted the weight, yes it's 4.5 pounds, but if you want a secure lock it's not going to be light. I carry mine in a belt with a hip bag and it's not an imposition at all.
  • I think this is the best u-lock out there. For a casual thief, this is the equivalent of trying to break into a house with a yapping dog.
  • This is a heavy, confidence-inspiring lock that leaves little space for a would-be thief to insinuate a tool, so it's plainly more difficult to break this lock.
  • Secondly, it is only 6" long. So, locking your bike to a thick post with a small lock can be a tight squeeze.

What customers say about "Features"
OnGuard Bulldog Combination U-Lock (LK8012C) Cable Combo
  • The cable is very, very handy to have for wrapping around your back tire or frame, especially if whatever you're locking to isn't very accommodating.
  • The entire thing is covered in a soft material so no worries about scratching your paint.
  • Heavy duty lock and cable. I use it on my electric bike, so weight isn't an issue. The combination is easy to reset.
  • Nice quality product, easy to set combination, rubberized finish protects bicycle, easy on and off.
  • The U lock is rather good. I really like the built in dial (no more keys). There is mounting equipment included.
Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit U-Lock
  • I also like the lighted feature on the main key that comes with the lock as it makes unlocking in poorly-lit areas much easier.
  • Heavy, sturdy, and the lock and key mechanism still works smoothly as long as you lubricate it occasionally.
  • The steel is very thick and the bottom bracket is heavy-duty. It would be very difficult for a would-be thief to cut through this.
  • The failure is, the key goes in and turns just fine, the lock will not unlock.
  • 6" is not enough for my opinion.
