Cheapest price I have ever seen for this U-Lock, seems very decent in terms of security.
Add £2.01 to get free delivery! I got a £3 mountain whistle for that.
Comes with the Kryptonite KryptoLok Series 2 Std U-lock, 4 foot Kryptoflex cable and Transit FlexFrame-U, for mounting on the bicycle.

Don't forget to regularly grease all keyholes and moving/connectible parts to stop the tealeaves from super gluing your Lock's!

Got two of these and never had any issues at all. Good solid locks and enough of a deterrent to the passing scrote with a pair of bolt cutters. I am sure it is like teaching grandma to suck eggs but if you do lock your bike up make sure the frame and back wheel are attached to something solid and the cable runs through the front wheel to the lock on the frame/back wheel. This lock is long enough to get through most frames and attach to something like a railing/post.

Judging by some of the reviews on Amazon, it does a good job of sticking on its own, no glue required!

are they gold rated?

It's silver rated which is the standard that the police recommend. But by all means go for gold if you want extra security for your bike.

Could always get a gold rated one for not much more if you want.
This is a great lock and after losing a bike in broad daylight at my office to a standard cable lock, I'd never look back. Downside is that it's quite chunky meaning that finding a place on your frame to fit the frame carry stand thingy for it it is near impossible. That coupled with the cable which again has nowhere to live when not in use means you'll end up lugging it in a ruck sack... otherwise I think this would put most would be scallywags off. Still less that an I paid... heat added.

Personally I don't bother with the cable if I'm using the U lock. The U lock can secure the frame and one wheel as well.
This lock comes with a mount to attach the lock to the bike while you're riding. Based on my experience, unless you have a awkwardly shaped frame, you should be able to fit the mount onto the bike.

You can coil the cable up, put the loops in the lock and use Velcro to attach it at the loop end.

Yep, I agree with you on that...finding a good place for the lock where to sit can be like playing Tetris. The only suitable place I found on my back was at the back of the frame, but my frame is also weird shaped. I also need to think of a more suitable way to carry the cable.

It's a moderate security lock so third highest in the range. It looks a good deal but dunno if I'd trust it in a city centre for an hour or two, but for a cheaper bike, looks a fair option. Heat applied!

Thanks for the information Dave, do you have any recommendation on what you would trust locking your bike for the day?

Mate, it's silver rated, literally what the police recommend. There's only one rating higher, and that's gold. I'd say silver is sufficient unless your bike costs close to a £1000 or more. Or if you park it in really dodgy places which in honesty if someone really wanted to steal or mess up your bike, they would find a way, gold standard lock or not.

If you have QR on both wheels, you must use the cable as well.

Mono wheeled bicycles are no substitute for a unicycle. :-)
