What if I told you there was a BRAND NEW anit-angle grinder bike lock 🔐 on the market? 🤔
THE U-LOCK REIMAGINED
All market-leading U-locks rattle, are heavy to carry and can be cut with an angle-grinder in seconds...Until now.
The LITELOK X range is a new category of full-sized, armoured u-locks that offers bicycles, e-bikes and motorcycles unparalleled resistance against angle grinders without any extra weight. What’s more, they contain host of clever design features such as our universal ‘Twist & Go’ frame mount for quick release, reflective strips to keep you safe and seen, an integrated rattle-free design for quieter riding and a soft plant-based eco-rubber outer layer which won't damage your frame.
The LITELOK X range is armoured with our patent pending Barronium™, a highly advanced and super hard ceramic composite material that is tougher than the grinder discs themselves. It repels angle grinder attacks by turning the grinder's energy and force in on itself. Continuous cutting wears down the grinder discs, batteries and ultimately the grinder motor itself. This gives LITELOK X up to 15 times more resistance than the current best-performing u-locks.
Barronium™ is permanently fused to a hardened fine-grain high-tensile steel core which provides protection against all other commonly used tools such as bolt croppers, cable cutters, long bars, hammers and chisels. A unique anti-rotation feature protects against twisting attacks and single cuts.
Accredited to Sold Secure Bicycle and Motorcycle Diamond level, LITELOK X locks will protect your bike against even the most determined bike thieves.

The problem here in Long Beach, California is that the thief could change 5 blades in broad daylight around a crowd of people and still nobody will call the cops. The thieves don't care.
Same as in London England
Sure, lock the bike alone and disappear, it can be easily taken without hesitation for sure. But I like its chances parked next to a few good bikes with any lesser lock including Fahgettaboutit now. I've never had a bike stolen when parked next to a better bike with a lesser lock.
@@thelockpickinglebowski633 This should be the song sequel to "I Left My Wallet in El Segundo."
Also, I've lived in NYC, Chicago and now SF. My theory still holds true: always park next to nicer bikes with lesser locks... preferably more than one. But places with easy car access like LB, I'd prefer to park next to as many bikes that can fit in a cargo van :)
@@ro63rto wouldnt get way with it in Scotland they would just go missing.
How many batteries do they need to carry as well though? 5 blades and a couple of batteries. They'll just pick another bike lock to attack
And now we only need angle grinder resistant bike stand :)
Next time hold the grinder 'level' or inline with the plane of the blade once you develope a cut-slot (i.e., curf).
In the video, just before the disk breaks (6:40 - 6:50ish), it is going through a significant amount of bending for each of thousands(?) of rpm. Most anything is going to break under this condition. This is also very likely to be the source of a lot of the grabbing you are getting. It still looks like the angle grinder is iffy.
seems sus
Looks very intentional to me. You can see him pull up on the grinder and twist the disk.
Came here to say this, my dude here is putting a lot of side load on his disc which is why he got lots of heat and not a lot of cutting, and ultimately two shattered discs.
Two and a half disks and a lot of melted plastic for side A, one used disk held level for clean cut on side B.
Not sus at all.
Ahh nuts !! Maybe have to look for another review now you lot have said it’s sus
Apologies if someone has already mentioned this.
Here in the UK the most important tool a "professional" bike thief has is what you would call a panel van.
This means it's not how long it takes them to cut through the lock hasp, but how long it takes them to cut through the fence that the bike is locked to! The bike with the lock still attached then goes in the back of the van, the thief then attacks the lock in the comfort and seclusion of their workshop. These guys steal maybe 10 bikes a day, and they know which bikes are worth stealing.
A bike lock has 2 functions
1) It forces the "casual" thief to go steal someone else's bike.
2) It demonstrates to your insurance company that you've taken reasonable precautions to prevent your bike from being stolen.
Your bike is fully insured isn't it!
Very good points
The majority of the time its two guys on a moped with a grinder
I totally agree. No lock in the world, no gps, no alarm can protect your bike against targeted attacks. But It will deter opportunity thiefs. For everything else you need insurance. Here in germany I pay like 6€ a month for an insurance that will reimburse me the full new price of my bike if stolen.
What blade did you use to cut the other side of the lock, as you went through it very quickly with one blade.
And someone who claims to use angle grinders a lot you put a lot of pressure and side/twisting load on those disc's.
He wasn't twisting the Angle Grinder, its the 'stuff' on the lock that's 'gripping' at the blade...!!!
I must have missed the "This has video has been brought to you by this video's sponsor, Litelok." As others have already commented, dude was flexing the hell out of the blade in the moments leading up to the blade breaking. Not something someone with lots of experience with that tool would do. I get the feeling that even if this is fairly resistant to cheapo cutoff wheels a diamond blade would zip right through it.
These locks can be picked in under 15 seconds with the right pick tool. The lock industry is a scam.
@@truantray the lock industry isn’t a scam per say, it’s just that to make a truly unpick-able lock isn’t financially sound for lock companies. Just like making a lightbulb that doesn’t last for 200,000 hours+ isn’t sound for a light bulb manufacturer. Most locks are built around social compliance that 99.9% of people that see the lock won’t try to either pick it or break it. Then you have 0.01% left most of which is people who will try to break a lock and not pick it. 🤷🤔
The fact is, if someone really really wants to take your bike, they’re gonna take it regardless of the lock. So best defence is to not leave your bike in a public area where it’s easily accessed, and if you have to lock it up in a public space rather than a private one, make it look as unappealing to a thief as possible.
If I leave mine in a public space I use a kryptonite heavy chain lock to secure one side, plus a U lock to secure my front wheel both linked with a cable lock.
@@truantray sure but that's not the way people are stealing bikes. I have never seen a lock left open. It's always either cut in half or smashed. And you have to learn to use picking tools. The learning curve on a angle grinder isn't that high
@@raunefare How long does it take to change to cutting what the lock is around, like that square bar?
@@raunefareYep, if you can pick a lock, especially this type of lock, you're not stealing bikes...
Hiplock produced the D1000
It might be quicker to cut through the bike rack than some of the best locks!
you can have bike racks pre-cut for that purpose 😁🙃
Not if it is a really thick, closed-loop bike rack and would take 2 cuts to really separate it from the locks!
that's what happens with sponsored videos with kickbacks, they seem to not try as hard with the company that paid them. He Kept flexing the blade on purpose so it would destroy the cutting blade, notice how he didn't do that with the kryptonite , he was basically "grinding" with the side of the cutter on this " cut resistant" lock. But I'm sure he will make some money from the gullible people out there.
Thanks for the heads up.
Also notice how the other side only took one blade lol
Nice job. To be far I think the times it takes to change blades should be included in the cut times
Very true
also I think the price of each destroyed blade should be included as motivation factor.
It doesn't matter... Once somebody takes the grinder to your bike, it's already gone and you've messed up like 5 times before it ever get's that far... Google the "survival onion" and apply it to the theft of your bike: You are relying on the very center of the onion, when you SHOULD be relying on all the outer layers and just have the core as the backup/root of it all...
What about one of those locks with a hollow inner tube with a skin irritant or some crazy red dye that doesn’t wash out. Then when the disc spins it gets all over everything and ruins clothes, skin, everything!! Just a thought!
It exists, it's called the skunklock.
Very questionable legality. I wouldn't use such security measures without consulting an attorney first. I know that's stupid, as a thief hurting themself in committing a crime should be their own fault, but this is premeditated to injure a thief during the same commission. Thieves have successfully sued places they tried to steal from after being injured during the commission, so you might be doing more harm to yourself by using such security measures than you would be helping yourself.
Seek legal counsel before using such measures.
I was thinking petrol under pressure.
Both times, I called the blade breakage. You were torquing the grinder causing the blade to be cutting while bent. That’s why they snapped.
100%, that's exactly why his cutting discs failed. You can easily see how warped the disc is while it's cutting because he's twisting the tool so much. This is a recipe for disaster when cutting ANY material.
I observed that too. I was like "wtf, don't bend the tool upwards like that" - it's so clear on the video how the disc really warps and bends.
"I can feel it grab the disc" - like that would be some property of the material - it's simply the disc getting pinched because of the bending. That's also why it got so hot (plastic coating to run off like wax 😂), since it behaves pretty much like a disc brake creating friction heating. The heat may help though - making the material somewhat softer and easier to cut. I have cut some hardened steel, that's cut slowly at first, but then suddenly the cutting speeds up and it gets as easy to cut as ordinary mild steel - it gets so hot by the friction heat that the material get annealed. But then it would be better to use a torch and then cut, than breaking the discs.
Yup. It almost looked as if he did it on purpose.
he didnt shave it either...looks like he just held it in place. very weird video and honestly not something we can prove unless we were him.
Yeah, like the average meth-head bike thief is gonna be a real expert and have perfect form lol.
People think that if they lock their bike in a backstreet, a hidden place that their bike will be safer. The problem with that is that the thief has all the time in the world to get that bike. Lock your ride where everyone can see it, which may deter a crook to steal it if it's in a high traffic pedestrian area.
Thank you for this detailed and informative video. Since I just purchased a $4K+ e-bike I need videos like these to help protect my investment.
Just make sure it's insured...
Now repeat the test using someone who can use a grinder !
You are twisting the cutting disc in the slot you have cut, yes any cutting disc will shatter cutting normal 10mm rebar if you twist it in the cut.
Did he just bend the cutting blade on one side ……. When he moved onto cutting the other side , it wasn’t a hassle at all… no blade damage…… What are we saying here, only one side of that lock is grinder resistant, or…….?
Brilliant! This will help me in my “ put random bike locks on random bikes” campaign!
You must be rich, as these locks are over $150 USD each.
The unsuccessful thief would grind the bike frame to destroy it through frustration .
That Litelok is very impressive
Absolutely
KINGGGG THE KINGGG-LITELOK X1,SUPERRRR GALAKTICCC.
lock can be amazing, chances are it will be locked to something not as strong , so cut that away , take bike and deal with lock another time
@Kyle Rittenstritch cut the rim . Bike parts are worth a lot and easy to sell .
Six seconds a side (first lock) , with the Hitachi with the Hermes tungsten impregnated discs . Trucking chains are much harder to cut as they are interlaced and are more likely to kick back . The trucking chain is what my assistant in my bicycle repair business secures their bicycle with .
Try cutting wax and not pressing too hard. Also keep the wheel aligned in its cut groove. The grabbing should stop.
If they were to put individual 10mm freely rotating outer shroud pieces all along U lock bar section, then the angle grinder would in effect just spin those pieces instead of cutting through them, meaning that the thief would effectively need three hands to cut the bar, 1 hand to hold the grinder, 1 hand to hold the lock in place and one hand to hold the spinning outer shroud section with pliers to avoid injury.
They would just use duct tape to secure the shroud. 😢
Wow impressive. Good demonstration of both locks ... thanks
Could you repeat the test but try grind cutting on the T piece or the lock cylinder housing. I suspect those areas may not be so tough
How can Litelok be the "world's first anti-grinder" lock when Hiplok's D1000 was released almost two years ago? And the Altor SAF lock three years? Both angle-grinder resistant locks.
I LOVE that the security industry is addressing the scourge of grinders, but let's at least tell it like it is.
Sad that this is the wrong approach imho... Thieves should be punished REALLY hard and people should stop them when they see them "in Action" or at least call the Police!
Diamonds are for ever. Ain’t you got any?
About time and there are 3 anti angle grinder locks out there now.
Why did one side take multiple discs, and the other only took one?
THIS lock is what you want to secure a $6,000. bike!.
UPDATE: I bought this model 1X LITELOK. Thanks for this review.
@@chaxologist2961now your ultra light bike weighs 100pounds sus
Great. Now try it with a diamond disk meant for cutting tiles. And stop letting the disk twist in the kerf allowing it to bind up.
Outstanding, interesting video... Now I know which lock will be my next one... Thank you very much!!!
I cut a few highly rated locks like these in a shop demonstration with the Hitachi grinder .. If it has been pressed into a shape , it can be cut with tungsten impregnated discs .
"Kryptonite , Gone in 30 seconds"
Coming to the streets near you. Watch it at your favorite bicycle parking spots. Starting now!!
wasn't Hiplok D1000 the very world's first anti-grinder angle grinder bike lock (rated diamond by Gold Secure)? 😇
are we not going to talk about how it got through cut 2 much more easily?
Yep, and how many blades it took. Perhaps a weaker point, Idk.
In the comments he says he used a diamond coated disc for the 2nd cut.
So I will use a diamond coated disk cutter then lol
@@stevenbell9589 I wish somebody would in these testing videos (and discuss it).
@@andrewvickers4487 nice, hopefully thief's aren't looking at this too
Have you tried cutting through the lock body instead of the shackle?
Very good demo. Thieves who barely qualify to be called human beings will adapt, of course. For example, they will carry several angle grinders and simply switch grinders instead of switching blades. They will also cut through the rack (as others have mentioned). And for bikes with high-end components, they will cut through the frame to sacrifice it in order to get the parts.
yup I can confirm this, I have seen it
▪️
I used to work with an Egyptian guy. One day, he said to me
"In Egypt, if someone catch you stealing - they Chop off Your HAND. And also in Egypt - NOBODY STEAL!"
🟥
@@2NDFLB-CLERK ya nobody steals in egypt.. LOL
Also - I wonder how a diamond blade would do. I got one for my big (230 mm angle grinder) that was labelled as "demolition disc" and cut pretty much everything.
For mild steel and aluminium it cuts about the same speed as an normal disc but it lasts like 100 times longer. For really hard material, like hard fire bricks with high alumina content, it cuts significantly faster - those material can sometimes pulverize a standard disc after like 2 cuts.
Now when I remember it, I also tried cutting ceramic tubes to the right length for an electric furnace that I built (those tubes are used to hold up the heating elements) with my small grinder (125 mm disc) that I don't have any diamond blades for. Those were so hard that a whole new disc got pulverized after one cut (and it was not "metal" discs, but labelled for cutting rock - although, the material of those seems very similar to the standard steel cutting ones, they are just thicker). Also I was not bending the disc, like he does in the video, and it was not exploding like it did for him - it was simply decreasing in diameter along with the cut and when the cut was done, there was almost nothing left of the disc, except a huge cloud of dust. A "metal" disc, disintegrated even faster. But my big grinder with a diamond blade cut those tubes easily, several times and the disc is still almost like new afterwards.
if u have a cheap bike why would they bother, expensive bike put it in a lockup or dont leave it alone for too long.
thanks for helping me to know what u-lock i should buy to protect my own Escooter which is expensive when i have that.
If your gonna grind like thst you really need to have a face shield over those poindexters or you absolutely will get metal in your eye. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but guaranteed it will be at the most inconvenient time & place.
I see the shackle improved, but what about the lock body?
Thanks for the great content. As someone who has an extremely deep set of skills cutting locks off abandoned storage units (thousands), that's an impressively resistant bar. I've never had to cut bike locks. But I have cut every type of padlock from every manufacturer you can think of. It has never taken me more than a minute to defeat one. As angle grinders become more ubiquitous, it will be interesting to see how lock manufacturers deal with them. Very good video.
In Europe we have something called a Hiplock D1000 which takes about 10 minutes to cut both sides with an angle grinder
Yea but they're 600 bucks for the real ones. I'd rather just get 70 dollar a year insurance, a cheap GPS tracker and a 100 dollar lock like I have and it's much more cost effective. And you can find your own bike or send the cops to it's last location...But even if you can't get it back you get a new one and a rental bike until you get your new bike. At least that's my policy(66/year).
@@jdgoesham5381 The Hiplock D1000 is about $300 over here but you are right that it's too expensive which is why I don't have one. I have 2 locks which are effective against anything but an angle grinder, two air tags (one in the tyre, one in the stem) and a 120DB alarm. I removed the speakers from the airtags so the theives can't find them. Sounds like a good policy! I'll check out insurance over here but the only policies I have seen have been stupidly expensive
@@jdgoesham5381 I have no insurance, no lock and no GPS tracker, and I've never lost a bike, because I never leave it anywhere where it can be stolen.
It took 10 minutes and 10 discs to cut ONE side from what I've seen.
The D1000 is $300, NOT $600.
How is $300 "too much" when nice bikes - especially nice ebikes - are $4-6k, NOT $1k these days? When you spent $50 to protect an $800 bike 20 years ago, $300 for a $5k bike is actually a little less security money spent per bike dollar. The math checks out.
Saw a $5k cargo ebike locked in the SF Bay Area with a basic, old tech lock recently. THIS is the perfect candidate for this new breed of locks.
Yes, use GPS trackers. Yes, get insurance. Yes, be smart. But use the best lock!
@@ruzziasht349 so you sleep with your bike? Shower with it? Attend a concert with it? Go to work with it? Have sex with it next to you?!!!! And what if you have more than one? Do you ride your first bike with your second bike over your shoulder?
EVERYONE leaves a bike behind. I HATE the saying, "Oh, my bike's TOO NICE to lock!" No one is always with their bike.
EVERY bike is left unattended, so EVERY BIKE SHOULD BE LOCKED! All 12 of my garaged bikes are locked right now. In a double-locked garage with beefed-up locks. And with active video surveillance 24/7. They're also all fully insured. Some have GPS trackers. And some of the locks have extra pipe sections attached for added security. (Yes, I'm kinda bonkers when it comes to bike security.)
However, many are irreplaceable as they aren't made anymore, hand-made by a small builder and/or have custom paint, so it's important that I never lose a bike or have to collect on insurance in the first place.
The plastic shackle jacket melting seems to be lubricating the cuts. And you are indeed placing too much side force on the cutting wheel making them fail prematurely.
Zactly. I use cutoff blades all the time and in all the wrong ways.. I cut alloy, I polish, I cut channels sideways... I only destroy the blades if I load it sideways... and I've had them hot... cutting things like hardened steel etc. Stainless.. Brass. Plastic. even glass... Not to say I haven't destroyed a few disks... usually because I cut so deep the heat can shrink the slot and grab the cheeks...
I'd make the outer rubber... It won't stop them but at least they'll stink of burning rubber!
@@TheButlerNZ check out at 7:57, he literally shoves it downward. This dude is a paid shill
It's intentional to sell these locks. This is actually just a commercial.
I think it is very wise of you not to say that a battery grinder is the best tool for theft in the world because if you do, the people here in South Africa will start using it. Other than that, the litelok x is a great motivation for me to buy it instead of the New York kryptonite u-lock
Disk failure obviously due to operator error. Can plainly see the disk warping during cutting. Good lock though.
That looks amazing!
I appreciate the testing on this topic and this product but I think the second cut was the one we're most interested in, but you fast forwarded and no discussion in the video? It looked like it took a little over a minute in real time... I learned in the comments that you switched over to a diamond coated disc - I suppose thieves might be using these too?
Very good review i expect more of these vidoes cant wait
Got mine coming in the next couple of days. Impressive test, it is secure enough but would not use it to leave a bike overnight outside in public view - but not sure anything is
Thanks for the video I will subscribe. Do you have a video of the X3 bike lock? It would be great to see if it’s worth the extra money and if it take longer to cut threw ?
Definitely a step up.
What about cutting through the lock casing?
If you want to defeat angle grinders, just make the lock out of stainless steel. The guys out there that have had to cut that in an industrial situation will agree 👍
Those Diablo blades were recalled in 2021 in my country due to manufacturing defects .
Yikes, Wayne spent much for us to be aware. Thanks, Wayne!
~100$ and it's a tax write off if this channel is a business.
Steel pipe at 11:00 will eventually bend the bar . I did this at the shop demonstration .
Nice video!!! Thanks for the info!!
I have LX, it operates very easily. The key and shackle sets and re-sets easily in the dark and the rubber coating works well for storage on my frame while not in use. Nobody has tried to cut it yet. I doubt it’s as difficult to cut as this demonstration? I don’t know about 10X that of the Kryptonite but it might be 5X. If it is ever defeated I’ll revise this.
The lock didn’t destroy your blade you did. you were putting axial load on the disk and we could see it bending in the video.
Superb presentation and review! Thank you very much!
I ride a Huffy. List price $95.00 Hardly worth the effort.
AS an alternative I would simply cut the metal to which it was secured. Much easier. But a good lock all the same.
Great video !....thanks. Try the HIPLOK D or DX1000, will like to see a comparation
I've been using the Pewag case hardened 12mm chain with the Video Euromonolith padlock which is the most angle grinder proof combo I've found so far but it's 6.5 lbs for a 1foot chain. Seems like litelok x might be even better?
Or have both. Plus cover your bike and park it next to other bikes that aren't covered. Why? I saw on a BBC documentary, London bike thieves said they wouldn't target a covered bike, because they don't know what security is under the cover, and they don't know how long it will take them. So they target the bikes with no covers because they can evaluate how quickly they can steal it.
The cover alone next to loads of bikes that aren't covered, would probably see the bike ignored, if not then they have a nasty surprise of grinder disc destroying hell waiting on them.
@@Inquisitivemind97 Smart. I'll remember that. I keep a cover in my frame bag of my ebike.
Can you test a "LITELOK CORE PLUS" its the Diamond standard lock.
Unfortunately I think the thieves just cut a piece out of the bicycle stand which the bike have been locked to, instead of the lock itself ..
My thoughts exactly
I guess it depends on what it's locked to. If it's a stop sign, then yeah, just cut the stop sign. But if it's locked to 3 inches of solid steel, then you should be good.
@darriusholt not many solid 3 inch steel to lock my bike to when I'm out lol 😆
If they are that dedicated you think they could make decent money the legit way
@@kieranwhite9130 If it takes them 5-10 minutes to cut through what ever its locked to then it's an easy 3 grand (that's the value of my bike) .. whilst the public stand around, do nothing and film it on their phones. Thieves don't give a sh!t because they know the police won't turn up! and the public are too scared to get involved in case they get stabbed!
2 minutes in the video, one question: do the thieves worry about :eye protection, ear protection, gloves ? if not how to they do it? what the ppl around have to say about someone grinding a bike lock? why there are not laws that legalize beating up bike thieves ?
It's good to know that thieves wear ear protection. Safety first.
Good info...thanks for buying and destroying 2 locks and multiple cutting disks for us.
nothing can defeat the flame wrench
Great Video!
what did you cut the second side with? I notice it went straight through with one blade and was a much cleaner cut without even melting the plastic outer. Was it a diamond blade?
The second side was cut with the same disk he finishes the 1st side....it was just used correctly and NOT twisted while cutting, so it didn't have the catastrophic failure of the first two disks. Also note the severe lack of heat damage (melted vinyl cover) on the second cut. It makes one wonder if the first cut was ....dramatized.... just a wee little bit.
@@mikedeloach6849 That's what I was thinking. Was he twisting the angle grinder on the first cuts to torque and break the blades. There was a lot of heat generation.
To answer your questions
Diamond blade was used on the 2nd cut at the end of the video.
I was not intentionally flexing the blade in any way shape or form. Film yourself using these Ulta thin blades and you will find that's just how the work, the spin so fast and are so thing they flex while cutting no matter how straight you hold it.
@@waynewinton The third blade cut that lock like butter.
@@mikedeloach6849 I call bullshit as well. He was trying to break the blade by flexing it. Also the camera is not close enough to see exactly what is happening. If your pushing hard enough that the blade is flexing just ease off and let the blade do the work
Great video thanks for making it and sharing it but what if someone used a reciprocating saw instead with a good high quality blade used to cut metal how quick could a thief potentially cut through that lock then?
Impressive lock and great vid.
It's not that expensive for the protection of a $1k or more bike.
I would never walk away from my locked bike for more time than to grab a few items from the grocery store.
Never heard of them but I do now. Cheap insurance.
voouw......Thank you for sharing this test video.....
i want this Litelok ❤
This is the Lock Picking Lawyer......who cares about the shackle when the cylinder can be defeated in seconds!
Forget the lock cut through what it’s locked to 😂
Very nice lock
I've been using the Abus xplus Granite(230mm) & mini Dlocks on my Ebike for years but have always had to worry about angle grinders, the few locks that could resist angle grinders tend to be thick Chain locks for Moterbikes. I plan to buy the LiteLok X3 as my main lock (through rear frame and wheel) lock and the LiteLok X as my second lock (through front forks and wheel). I need to apply for the underground cycle lock up parking, combined with these locks I think I can finally worry far less about some asshole with an angle grinder.
If the LiteLok X3 is less angle grinder resistant than the Hiplock D1000 than I'll use that as my main lock but I like the shape of the LiteLok Dlocks.
Have you seen this? ruclips.net/video/PUwjh8J4uec/видео.html First proper test of X3 s far as I can tell and the guy says its the best thing he's ever tested including D1000. Got my X3 on pre-order!
Did you end up getting litelok (any model) or hiplok? How was your experience with it?
@@asifjamal5874 I bought litelok X1 because it would can fit in my bag. my experience with it has been same as using my Gold rated abus lock but without having to worry about a thief getting through the lock in a minute. I still plan on getting the X3 but that would be left in an underground lock up
Nice!
Hiplok D1000 is a competitor to this with the same kind of technology
Yeah….but oxy-acetalyne? Nothing is unbreakable. Props tho’ for apparently good grinder resistance.
Yep, but on the other side of the u-lock you cut it with a diamond cuttin blade. Instead of the metal cutting disc. It munched through it. So the point is if you have a really expensive bike, motorcycle etc. Dont lock it up.
Will cutting the X1 be faster if someone assisted with a flame torch? Sometimes, thieves come in pair.
I was thinking of hiring two Ninjas to follow me wherever I go. Then I don’t even have to carry a lock.
When you used that bar, I could see it starting to bend outward and you stopped the amount of force you were using and started jerking movements.
Why didn't you try a diamond grit cut off blade for you tests?
Bennetts bikesocial did it with 1 1/2 blades 😂😂😂 I think this guy is paid by litelok
Infomercial.
Why are the angle grinders running at different speeds LOL do you work for Litelock ?? do a fair test please
If someone wants to steal something they will if determined enough.This should frustrate/ deter some & takes time.
Ordered one today.
Why cut the lock, when the post it is attached to is not angle grinder resistant?
How about a flap disc or abrasion disc first then a cutting disc
Thank you sir
How does it hold up against diamond cut off wheels?
the issue isn't the lock its what the lock is attached to, just cut the weaker material then take bike somewhere else to remove lock
True. Just make sure it is locked to something solid & thick? Are common bike street racks hollow? If so a thief might attack that with a grinder once the Litelok x3 becomes known about?
