When August Bremicker und Söhne KG (ABUS for short) started making traditional padlocks in 1924, they were already setting standards. The founders’ strategy was simple and timeless: 'Security calls for quality!’. It is that principle that successive generations have carried on and developed. The list of ABUS innovations that make life difficult for would be bike thieves is a long one. Their inventive spirit makes sure the list gets longer and longer!

Abus Winner 885 185cm Cable Bike Lock 3.8 5 12 12

Works OK I bought this as a second lock for my bike. It was easy to fit apart from removing the excess from the metal tie that holds the carrying bracket on the bike (which took me some time with a hack saw and didn't leave a very neat finish and is still a sharp edge). I fitted it beneath my saddle. It stows neatly on the storage bracket, it's easy to deploy and no one has attempted to steal my bike yet. I've no idea how well it will deter a thief or how it would stand up to an attempt to open or break it. I have an Abus Granite D lock as the main lock and the dual lock approach is the one that seems most recommended. 14 July 2010

Neat design easy to install Good shape easy to hide on the frame, hopefully it will hold its shape long term, good value 06 May 2013

Convenient... until your bike gets stolen The appeal of these sort of locks is that they're compact and light weight, meaning you can attach it to your bike almost permanently and not even notice it's there while riding. Easy to whip off it's bracket and lock up quickly so you can get in the pub saving precious drinking minutes. BUT... if you use this as your sole lock then you really are running the gauntlet on how many chances you get before the inevitable happens. I took the risk in favour of convenience and was lucky for a while but eventually I did get my bike stolen. CCTV showed this lock was absolutely no hindrance to thief who'd snipped through it in a couple of seconds. Useful for a quick dash into the shops or as a secondary lock perhaps for your wheels? But you're gambling if you use it solo. 23 January 2013

Good second lock I have been using a long cable in combination with a U-lock for many years, which meant always having to have a rucksack for the cable. I found no problem with attaching the bracket to the frame of my Marin, and have not noticed any movement so far. I would agree that the tight coils are less easy to pass throught the wheels than my old straight cable, but I guess you cannot have that and the convenient storage. The more interesting point will be seeing how long the coils remain so tight - if they loosen over time, carrying it would become a big problem. The lock is very smooth to click into place, and easy to unlock. I suspect that it will prove more than enough to deter chancers looking for a bike to steal. 17 July 2012

Answer:

No idea what it stands for, but basically the lock body clicks into place; released by pinching two bits of plastic. These are big enough to use with gloves on.

The mount is held onto frame by a soft metal band bent back on itself. Seems to be more solid than that sounds.

Answer:

The RBKF bracket attaches to the frame with an adjustable band. The lock attaches by sliding into the bracket with a small attachment on the barrel of the lock.

Answer:

The gap in the anchor allows a 13mm cable to pass through, this lock has a 9.5mm thickness at the cable but the socket on the end of the cable is far too wide to fit through. You would be better off with a separate cable and padlock to allow the cable to pass though.
