LITELOK ONE MOTO

I ordered two so I could daisy chain rather than carrying one long heavy lock about all the time.

But found they don't fit very well around wire spoked wheels, the angles and positions to get through the spokes reduces its effective length over the same length of chain so I'd have been better getting a longer narrower lock.

They also don't fit through my ground anchor so I'll need to purchase something like the X1 to replace the chain I use.

The securing straps are hard work, they can't be cinched down tight due to the buckles and are a faff in dry gloves, never mind when it's raining. Just as you get wrapped, the strap uncoils while you faff with the stupid buckle.

I replaced them straight away with simple hd hook and loop straps that can be used with one hand and with gloves on, I can coil the lock and secure it tightly wrapped now in seconds.

For popping into town, there is no excuse for not carrying one or even two of these. They are compact and lightweight and highly visible, especially if they have to attack two separate securing points, they will likely move on to the next bike.

If you park where it's possible to carry the bike off, definitely take two and secure to something solid.

I chose these over the core Moto as I didn't want to have the bulk and weight, but with hindsight the Core would probably be better with spoked wheels. Although I found a creative way to use one up front where it can't be removed if the front spindle is removed.
