What are the best bike locks for urban cycling?

When it comes to urban cycling, you'll want a lock that is both secure and portable. Some top options include U-locks like the Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit and chain locks like the Abus Granit City. Do you have a specific budget in mind?

I'm looking for something under $100.

Great! For under $100, I recommend the Kryptonite KryptoLok Series 2 U-lock and the OnGuard Bulldog DT. Both offer solid security without breaking the bank.

How do I choose the right lock for my bike?

Consider factors like the type of bike you have, where you'll be locking it up, and how long you'll be away from it. A U-lock is generally more secure for short-term parking, while a chain lock can offer flexibility for securing multiple parts of your bike.

Are there any locks that are lightweight and portable?

Yes! Look for folding locks like the Abus Bordo Lite or lightweight U-locks. They provide good security while being easy to carry.
