USELESS!!!!June 23, 2008 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
I just got my US$450 bike stolen due to one of these useless cables. The cable looks sturdy but from the cut the thieves left I could see that they had no problem at all cutting it (it was a clean cut). Don't waste your money with this product or don't risk loosing your precious bike using it!!!
Worthless Strands of MetalJune 17, 2008 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was recently burglarized and what the thieves didn't get were two bicycles that were coincidentally locked up with the Kryptonite Kryptoflex Cable. However, the cable had absolutely nothing to do with it--the bicycles were well hidden from view underneath a tarp and were not tampered with. When I tried to move the bicycles afterwards I realized I could not find the key to the lock. So I made some preliminary cuts to the cable with a hack saw, and then finished the job off by nibbling each strand of wire with a pair of aviation snips. The cable snapped in two in about 90 seconds and I was able to free the bicycles. I realized that if I hadn't hidden the bicycles under the tarp, they would have been stolen in spite of the cable and lock.
The Kryptonite Kryptoflex Cable is absolutely worthless when it comes to protecting your belongings against even the most basic tools of a criminal. Save your money and purchase a standard blue plastic tarp and hide your stuff instead. You'll save some money and have more piece of mind than what these worthless strands of metal with the childish comic-book brand can provide. The word "Kryptonite" is also a synonym for Achilles' heel, the one weakness of an otherwise invulnerable hero--a not too clever brand name either. You can even use the blue tarp as a cape and prance around your back yard like a real superhero. That ought to scare the crooks away.

Works just as I thought. I only wish I had gotten it about a foot longer. But I'm very statisfied.
