- In this video (1457) I take a look at a Panasonic Bicycle Lock (model SAJ080) that I found online. Man, is it JUNK! Easy to pick, despite a threatening looking key, and made from...wait for it....aluminum. JUNK!

It's low security as that's all that is needed in Japan. Most people don't even bother with a lock.
@@84Bazza84 - Thinly-veiled racism? It must be hard being you, living in constant fear of anything remotely different to your narrow little view of the world.
@@84Bazza84 Don't forget raperations.
Knowing the crime rates in Japan, this lock would still be an overkill for locals..
If only it were the same here in the US... sigh...😄
Fun fact, Panasonic has been making bicycles for many years, so it’s not really a surprise that they make locks for them too.
As many other people have mentioned security isn’t a major issue in Japan either.
I’ve had mates leave $3k bmx bikes unlocked outside a restaurant when they’re having lunch in Tokyo without any issues.
On the left it says it's even gentle on the bike body because they use a silicone cover/sleeve. On the right they say it's hard to use a fake key because they use a double dimple key.😅 Says something about safe 安 in white, but can't see it behind the U...
Edit: OK, checked the white writing, says it should bring you peace of mind, since it's a 3-pinner...😂
You would be better off securing your bike with Panasonic headphones. :D
You make everything look so easy.
Thanks for the education.
Much respect，

Panasonic also makes bikes! Though they stopped importing to the US when the Yen flipped in the late 80's, they are still making bikes in Japan. I have a touring bicycle from '83 made by Panasonic and it's awesome. This is a cool lock!
Panashocking.
I have a Panasonic vacuum cleaner and it is wonderful.
Not sure how you can say this lock is cool it is not secure and easy to open.!!!!!
@@g7mks383 Cool in that it is a Panasonic lock. I would never use this to lock up anything, however.
The product is meant for Japanese market. Locks are rarely used. Low security is more than enough over there. Lightweight takes priority.
This is a genuine Panasonic bike lock which you can find on their cycling website-- bikes are very popular in Japan, which is why Panasonic (and lots of big corporations) sell bike accessories. However, this lock is actually priced at ¥2,800 in Japan, or about $25 USD.
Add shipping and handling to the US, $35 doesn't sound like a huge mark-up. Still a rip-off for the quality lock you get, though.😂
@@MichaelBerthelsen it's definitely not a quality lock but keep in mind, 2,800 yen is the MSRP from the official website. I'd guess it's probably sold for a much lower price at bargain bike shops/websites.
Also as mentioned by other commentors, theft is not as prevelant in Japan. It's not uncommon for bikes to be left outside without locks at all.
@@mynameisneo7 Dude, I know. I live here. 😅 It's mostly to prevent joyriders and drunk assholes at night. Oh, and it's just under 2000 on Amazon, their prices are usually some of the lowest you can get. Found a review by a Japanese guy too, said a pair of 600mm bolt cutters went through like butter...😅 Apparently a pair of 350mm just ended up hurting his hands.😂 Also made a good point. If your bike is worth locking up, get a lock that's worth locking it up with.
This Japanese lock is low security due to the extreme penalty for stealing a bike mainly to
keep drunk guys from grabbing your bike.
Good morning Bill
Sick looking scalpel bro!
Similar situation a while back in an LPL video. So my comment will be similar.
This isn't a lock as much as its a social commentary.
Well, since the mere possession of lock-picking paraphernalia can get you a fine of $50,000 and/or a year in jail, not a lot of gear floatinf around. There's a reason I have plenty of locks here, but have to wait until I'm outside Japan to do anything with them. They have great practice locks, but you're not allowed to have the gear to practice with... Which sucks, since I live here for now, and can only enjoy it when I'm home for holidays.😅
Good Day Bill ;)
Good evening Bill
Good enough to secure your been in, so it must be good enough for a lock. Because were all super protective of our beer....
Thanks good video, the zip ties look to be more secure!!!
You know a lock is in trouble when the video is only 5:19 long and the rake comes out at 4:20.
LockLab...where the fun begins.
Maybe its just meant to keep your bike from being blown over in the wind? Sparrows worm has to be one of my favorite all around picks, nice job Bill!
Well that's Japan. More typhoons that thieves over there.
Ha! "The long way around."
I was just about to comment, "NO, that's not the right tool for the job," when you said it instead.
I also use flush cutters on zip ties. Looks like that scalpel did a number to your finger already.
LPL used a dimple rake, do you use them as well?
How light is this?
Seems like a good alternative to a cable for securing a quick release front wheel.
Nice gift, the lock.... not so much.
Use a cheap laser pointer to shine inside. The cheaper ones aren't so focused, but they are able to shine deep. You can put away the finger rave light you got from the Dollar Store.
There's a reason they only sell these in Japan, Bill.😉 Nowhere else is safe enough for you to be using that weak a lock, body, and bar...😜
I'm thinking of going back to Japan...
Maybe Mahogany on your scalpel. Easy pickings, again. LOL!!!!
That's what I was thinking, but the veins seemed very broad... Still, could be an odd cut!
@@MichaelBerthelsen, It's hard to tell without a better look at it but the color makes me think that.
zebra wood
Panasonic makes far better bike tires than they do bike locks. See panaracer tires. They compete with schwalbe, a German manufacturer of bike tires.
As for bike locks i come here to find out which ones i should not get. Then wait until one that was reccomended to me is picked in a few minutes leading me to curse my 180 dollar purchase of a bike lock and chain.
My first VCR was Panasonic my friends was RCA, both were identical.
most of these companies purchase stuff from overseas and just put their own brand on it. beats by dre is an example
Bill, fwiw in your title and description you have omited the "S" of SAJ080
Panashocking.
Thanks! Fixed.
Japan has had a massive abandoned bike problem for years, so I doubt there’s much of a chop market. Then in China they have acres of scrap bikes.
Hacksaw through that shackle in what... 30 seconds?
Walnut wood?
For those questioning whether it's a legitimate Panasonic lock, it is! They only sell them in Japan. cycle.panasonic.jp/accessories/key/saj080/
In Japan you woldn't need a lock. I have seen $10000 bikes just leaning against a fence in the street - middle of Tokyo too. No one would ever take it. Probably why the lock is crap.
maybe this is some kind of super-strong aluminum :) you didn't even try to cut it.
Well looky tha
🖤🧙♂️
I think some of these lock makers just don't bother anymore much with expensive materials because of modern power tools
Hi
I wonder how much of that was ePay scammer markup? Probably cost $15 in Japan...
I have Panasonic tires on my bike. They work awesome and weigh almost nothing
Whats with the sound in this video? Is thinner than usual.
Okay now
Im guessing Japan is a lot safer as regards having your bike nicked🤔
Drunk people in japan tends to steal anything
@@mayuravirus6134 hard to pick a lock drunk though
Both crossbar ans shackle are aluminum
Oh my lord christ. I wants one....not the lock.
Aluminium shackle? Even LOTO locks with a plastic body have a hardened steel shackle. I guess it would help hold the bike upright if fastened to a sturdy object. Might as well go all out low security & make the whole thing out of a 3D printed plastic.
I know that they used cheap materials buddy, but in a way is there much point these days in hardening a thin shackle anyway as a bolt cutters gets through hardened shackles and grinders get through everything. I think a aluminum shackle is still useful since they can cut through steel and at least with aluminum it will give you a lighter lock to carry.
Looks like Zebrawood to me. Look it up in Wikipedia.
Here's one that even Masterlock laughed at.
Yes, and I don’t trust Master Lock to manufacture a good stereo!!
Who knew Panasonic made locks, go figure!🤔
I'm 200% sure it's not Panasonic. They just put the name on it to make it look good and reputable.
@@zaprodk quite possibly but he did say it came from Japan. Anyone's guess.
@@zaprodk I promise you I can go buy one, not right now, it's 23:18, but yeah. They do sell these in Japan. Why anyone outside of Japan would think it a good idea to buy a product designed for the safest market on the planet, I have NO idea. But it's real.
Considering how fast that thing opened, I'm not sure they do
@@MichaelBerthelsen I don't think he was saying they're not real. I think what he meant is that they're not actually made by Panasonic in one of their facilities, but rather license the name out to a manufacturer who makes them for Panasonic, and labels them as such. 👌
Just like their batteries. Shoite!
looks like zebra wood
first red flag is three keys, bike theft in japan is very very low so.... also the cops check up on riders sometimes and issue tickets even if your on some other persons bike that you have permission to ride. either way thats a poor quality lock
Panashocking.
You are lucky its not made by Samsung, because it was probably explode while you picking... :D
Panasonic? More like Panasuckit
Panashocking.
Is it genuine Panasonic? A Chinese knock off?
Appears to be genuine, straight from their factory in Japan.
Panasonic is involved in lots of industries over here.😅
Panasonic should just stick to electronics.
Their microwaves are pretty good, I have one from 2002 that's still going strong.
Lol that's a horrible bike lock. A 2 Year old with a stick could get that open lol. Great video bud.
