Customer Reviews

Great lock, terrible keys
I bought one of these locks, and it worked great -- until the key broke in the lock (rendering the lock useless and my bike attached to the stand).

Open inspecting the situation (and after five+ hours of self-blame), I realized that the keys are made of a very fragile metal. The key just wasn't strong enough and no matter how "careful" the instructions tell you to be, the darn thing is bound to break.

While I'll buy Kryptonite again, I'll not buy this lock. I need both the lock and key to well-made.

Seems to be a great lock.
I bought this lock because of Slate.com's review of bike locks and this was the best according to their tests. The steel, silver looking clip is to attach it to your bike. I didn't realize this until recently, the bike attachment feature is pretty great.

The lock comes with three keys and one has a light, which is pretty nice for unlocking and locking in the dark. For a week or so I had problems locking the lock. I could get my key in but I had trouble getting it out of the lock, when I locked the lock. I have a feeling this was a user error. Once I started using the lock holder this problem stopped. I suspect I was trying to take the key out at an odd angle or something. Either way, this problem stopped and I have had no other problems with this lock.

This lock also looks good, and it's built well.

Cumbersome, but indestructible.
My one gripe is that the mounting bracket is not quite adequate. It probably works on every other kryptonite perfectly well. The NYC lock is just so heavy that it's probably better to bungee it to a rear rack.
The advantage is that the lock is just not going to fail, period. Your bike is going to be where you locked it. Downtown Baghdad, wherever. One of the lighter models is probably good enough to meet most needs and is more transportable.
