The width of this lock makes it easy to get around parking meters when no bike rack is available.

WISH LIST

It would be great if I could fit the lock into my back pocket.

SUMMARY

ABUS’s Granit X-Plus U-Mini 54 is a solid, rugged lock that made me confident locking my bike in any part of town. The width and shape of this U-lock made it easier to get around parking meters and other awkward locking spots. However, being a guy that prefers tucking his lock under his belt or in the back pocket of his jeans, this lock was a little too wide and heavy as a comfortable jean accessory.
