BordoTM Lite 605560 Black

The ABUS Bordo Lite Folding Lock 6055 is a compact and lightweight lock designed for quick stops during bike rides. Made in Germany, it offers high-quality Construction with 5mm x 20mm x 110mm steel links that are plastic coated to protect bike finishes. The lock also features heavy-duty 10mm wide flat-head rivets, ensuring durability and security. One standout feature of the ABUS Bordo Lite Folding Lock 6055 is the frame mount holster, which is included with the 85cm version. It can be easily screwed or strapped onto the bike frame, providing convenient storage for the lock.

Weighing only 498g (1.1 lbs.), the ABUS Bordo Lite Folding Lock 6055 is lightweight and easy to carry. However, it may be a little too big to fit in a pocket, making it best suited for mounting on the bike frame using the included holster or placing it in a backpack/hydration pack. While not pick-proof, the ABUS Bordo Lite Folding Lock 6055 is harder to pick than other locks, according to a well-known "Lock-Picking-Lawyer." This adds an extra layer of security to deter potential thieves. However, it's important to note that folding bike locks, including this one, are not as secure as U-Locks or hardened steel chains and are better suited for quick stops and convenience rather than long-term bike security. In terms of customer reviews, there are mixed opinions. Some users are happy with the trade-offs of the lightweight design and find the lock sufficient for their needs during quick stops. Others, however, feel that it is not as secure as U-Locks and would recommend investing in a more robust option. In conclusion, the ABUS Bordo Lite Folding Lock 6055 is a high-quality folding lock that provides minimal to medium security and convenience for quick stops during bike rides. It may not be as secure as U-Locks, but it offers a level of deterrence to prevent opportunistic theft.
