Abus Review

Keeping RiDE’s fleet of up to nine bikes secure shouldn’t be easy – that’s nine locks and nine keys (multiplied by nine staff members so they can all use any of the locks). But it’s a lot easier with a fleet of these RiDE recommended locks, thanks to a unique service that lets you buy multiple locks that can all be opened by the same key.

We’ve got nine locks that either live in the office or locked to railings in our secure bike park and we each have one key that operates any of the nine locks. If we park next to one of the locks in the morning, we know the key in our pocket will let us secure our bikes. For anyone who has more than one bike in their garage, this makes it easier to lock them up because there’s no more rooting around for separate keys.

The lock is tough and easy to use as it comes in a single piece. It’s easy to carry around and a light in the key helps locate the keyhole in the dark. Despite being left out through winter, plastic coatings around the lock body and fabric sleeves on the chains have kept them in top condition.

You can order several locks with matching keys specially from Abus dealers.
