Abus GRANIT XPlus 540 U-Lock

Product Information

If the Abus Granit X Plus 540 is not exactly what you’re looking for, then there are a number of other locks which might be more suitable… Looking for something cheaper? We expect this lock to last a very long time, perhaps longer than all the other U-locks we have tested over the years.

There's an automatic cover to guard against penetration by dirt and grime via the keyhole and the universal bracket can be mounted to round frames with a diameter of 15-35mm. However, as we’ve already discussed, a modern portable angle grinder will cut through both sides of this lock in less than 30 seconds. The mechanism is protected by an internal dust cover that’s pushed aside by the key when you insert into the key hole. During the expected lifespan of your product you're entitled to the following; up to 30 days, if your goods are faulty, then you can get a refund.Now one of the top names in motorcycle and scooter anti-theft products; Abus; based in Germany; is a family-owned company; passionate about helping motorcyclists keep hold of their pride and joy. Sold Secure gave it a ‘Diamond’ rating for bicycle security, which means it withstood their most rigorous thievery tests. I think the real advantage of folding locks is the way that their compact folded down form is much easier to transport than a U-lock.

Combined with a chain, they also give the opportunity to secure your moped, scooter or motorcycle (or bicycle of course) to something solid, stopping it being lifted into a van. Most bike thieves are still targeting crappy cable locks with cable cutters, and flimsy u-locks (or folding locks) with leverage attacks or bolt cutters. Bike locks aren't feature-rich, but ABUS made sure to throw in a few user-friendly surprises, including an automatic dust cover and a sturdy-as-heck frame mount. Unfortunately from time to time items may become unavailable, we will do our best to minimise this occurrence however if it should happen then we will contact you to suggest an appropriate alternative. Furthermore, the lock length of 30 cm allows you to secure your bike optimally to many fixed objects.The lock operates smoother than Kryptonite locks, which sometimes takes some finagling to get the key into the lock. Many of the individual products feature unique security innovations and Abus locks have proved un-pickable since the conception of the X-Plus and Plus locking mechanisms introduced over 18 years ago. Independent rating agencies appear to agree with ABUS, with a "Gold" rating from Sold Secure and three out of five stars from the Dutch organization ART.
