Hiplok LITE Wearable Chain Bike Lock

Left my bike for 2 minutes to go into the shop. Definitely locked, but thieves had no problem. Not happy at all, that bike was my livelihood

Great chain, seems very sturdy. However I have two issues with this. The first, it's not long enough. I can't even fit this around my front wheel and frame because it's too short. There are so many situations when I can't use this chain lock because it's simply too short. The other issue is the lock is a tiny bit fiddly and can be annoying to lock and unlock. I suppose that's the price you pay for it being secure. I have gotten a bit used to it now and am faster at locking and unlocking it.

This is a superb lock. I went back and forth with the original lock. As this is normally a second lock I went for lite and it certainly is. I’ve found myself a couple of times forgetting I had it around my waist. I also take it as a primary lock when on a weekend jaunt. I’ve not found any difficulties locking my front wheel or using it on my rear frame around standard metal bike stands.

In a Deliveroo rider and this lock is perfect for quick locks ups.BUT it failed me big time! The locking mechanism on the padlock failed, meaning my bike was locked to a lampost while I had an order to deliver. I had to return the delivery, which meant I lost the payment from that order.I had to ram the key in and out repeatedly and eventually the lock released. About 30 minutes had passed in this time which meant I lost around £10 in income.To avoid losing more income I had to spend the rest of my shift leaving my bike unsecured.Avoid if you want a reliable lock.

We unfortunately had a bike stolen using an alternative brand sold secure rated lock. Bought this to secure the replacement bike and it's superb and you can't beat the convenience of wrapping it round your waist. My teenage son will happily carry this lock everywhere without complaint. Excellent product.

My bike was stolen, whilst being locked with this lock and another loop look. The only positive about this is that's what the insurance company will accept as a good enough lock.

Bought this a year ago and love it. Despite its weight I don't even feel it while I'm riding. Easy to get on and off, velcro section is long enough to adjust to whatever layers I'm wearing. I have also used it wrapped around rear rack when on cycling trip when I didn't want to be carrying it.Suggest periodically tightening the bolts that keep the cable sheath in place, I lost one of them on a recent ride. I haven't taken any stars off though because when I contacted Hiplok they posted me 2 new bolts so quickly that I had them before I needed the lock again a couple days later! So customer service was brilliant.

I have a 34 inch waist and a slightly larger stomach. The velcro barely closes. I would prefer to wear it slung over one shoulder and under the other but it's not quite long enough for that. The chain is long enough to do one wheel and the frame, and using the flexible nylon strap makes it easier to thread the chain through the gaps. The lock is a bit fiddly, but still fairly easy to operate.
