It works great for locking up my e-bike. Either to the bike rack on my trailer or when I go out for a ride. I can lock it to any bike rack or pole.

Well made product, delivered on time. No issues at all. Thanks!

This product is still doing what its supposed to. It is being used in a harsh outdoor environment, along the Gulf coast. Salt air, sand, and shows no signs of corrosion.

Works well. No issues

These work great to secure each of 5 bikes to the Curt Bike Rack. I got extras as back up and haven't had to use them yet.

I love e-trailers!! It's great to continue doing business with a group of employees who care so much about their customers. And you are here is the USA!

I used this lock to secure my belongings on my vehicle’s hitch carrier platform during my three month trip trough AK last year. The cable lock worked flawlessly and provided much stress relief during my adventure
by: Keith 06/24/2023
Good bike chain - as sturdy as described and as expected. Long enough to wrap around the bike mount to the spare tire, for quick security.

Rubber tube cover without any logo makes the SRX the classy SUV it is.
by: Diann07/08/2023
They work great. We link them to lock our generator. I do worry that someone could just take a hammer to them though.
by: Christopher12/13/2022
These work okay. It's also nice being able to have all of the locks keyed the same.
I purchased two, One for a 2-5/16" coupler a year earlier and this one for a 2" coupler. The larger one is still working okay, but this one failed after about 9 months. Not sure if defective or poor quality. Waiting to see how the other one holds up.

Easy to install. I have used this bike rake for 3 trips already. It has been great.
by: 09/12/2023
Heavy duty. Exactly what I was hoping for. Great price point. I will probably order another one of these exact cables.
by: Gaird Z.10/31/2013
Awesome product! I use it to secure my mountain bike to my truck. Ironically the bike is worth more than the truck!
by: Richard 06/16/2020
I ordered pick up truck bed bike rack and a ten foot locking cable to secure the bikes. Both products are well made and the bike rack was easy to install. The locking can be used for many applications. I will probably purchase another one. I would recommend these items.

I have a Thule 4 bike hitch mounted carrier. With 2 street bikes, one on the rack closest to the vehicle and the other on the 3rd rack, I can run the CAB-10 through one of the trailer hitch safety holes and through both tires and the frames for each bike and lock them. Works extremely well and very quick. Locksmith said it was not possible to convert the key from my locking bike hitch or the CAB-10 to be the same, even though the keys looked like they were from the same family of locks. A minor inconvenience. Net, a well designed product, and works well for its intended purpose.
by: Rodney10/29/2022
The cable is pretty thin and the way you unlock it is by turning the key counterclockwise several turns to loosen the screw end attached to the cable. This is not a real high level of protection against theft however it suits my needs well. I use it to lock my dinghy to my other boat so no one can simply jump in it and motor away.
by: Rod K.06/26/2015
I purchased this cable to go through our 4 bikes that were mounted on a Thule Hitching Post Pro and through the Hidden Hitch Class III trailer hitch that I also purchased at the same time from E trailer. We just got back from a 1400 mile trip with the bikes. I felt secure leaving the bikes on the rack and in the motel lot overnight as well as at the Mall of America for a few hours while there. This 10ft. cable is easy to use and secures your bikes well, as well as the carrier from being stolen if you run it through the welded hitch loops.
by: Hubie05/09/2014
The cable/lock items I purchased are GREAT!! JUST as explained on the website. Have pre tested it and every thing is fine. Looking forward to using it very soon. It will be used some on our local adventures but for sure when we go south next year the cables will give me satisfaction that someone just can't lift off our bikes and run. He will need heavy duty bolt cutters to accomplish this. We have purchased numerous items from E-Trailer, bolt on hitch, lockable pin, locking cables and other items. This business is a fantastic, easy to order from and very quick delivery. Thanks.
by: Douglas 08/01/2021
Great quality lock. Great price. I shopped everywhere local and online. This is a great deal. Bought it for securing my bike and bike cover to the hitch-mounted bike rack on the back of my motorhome. I also purchased the hitch-mounted bike rack from ETrailer. ETrailer is awesome.
by: Cheryl 09/24/2022
Best as the small end fits under our kayak ring at the front lock them up. Most others are too big in diameter .
by: CM08/19/2016
I come to etrailer all the time for their in-depth reviews, question answering and more importantly, videos. For something as simple as this lock, it was actually hard to find retailers selling the kind I needed. I plan on using this to lock my bike to my hitch rack (through my hitch hook holes) and also to secure my kayak on the roof. Good price and fast shipping.
by: Ryan08/17/2018
Nice product. I like the length--perfect for locking the bikes up while on the bike rack. On the Curt bike rack, I am able to thread this cable through the bikes, through the security ring on the rack, and through the chain ring on the trailer hitch so that all three are locked up.
by: Nichole N05/19/2023
This was easy to install and my bike sure looks great!
by: Brad P.07/21/2017
What can I say - it's a lock. Use it on my bike carrier to secure bikes to the hitch. I fish through the safety chain loop on the hitch and through the frames of the bikes. So far I've only used it to secure two bikes. It's probably long enough to secure three bikes on a tray style bike rack, but doubt it could do 4 bikes.
by: Eric03/18/2018
This is a great bicycle lock. It is long enough to secure 4 bikes on my receiver hitch carrier or in the back of my truck. It doesn't show any signs of wear after a year, the lock still works great. Just used it this weekend while camping.

view full answer... - Effectiveness of Cable Locks Included in Bike Racks Like Kuat Transfer 2 TS02GThe Torx wrench required to remove the integral cable lock on the Transfer 2 bike rack TS02G is not one commonly found in hardware stores, according to my contact at Kuat. But yes, this is what is required to remove the cable lock from the rack. The reality of bike rack locks, and most other types, is that they all can be defeated by a thief with enough time and determination.
