Product Information

I’ve been using the Foldylock for the past few months, locking a bike during the day in the open in all weathers.

Likewise, if you don’t always use a bike rack and sometimes have to use other street furniture, the flexibility of a folding lock is really useful. Over the last three years, I’ve been using the X-Plus 6500 as one of my primary bike locks and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. Awarded the Sold Secure Gold rating, the Forever sits alongside some of the best bike locks on the market.Relatively thin steel plates and all those moving parts make them vulnerable to several types of attack. If the Foldylock Forever is just a bit too expensive, then I don’t recommend that you look at a cheaper folding lock.

Another great bronze level sold secure foldable bike lock comes from the popular lock brand Kryptonite. Consisting of six hardened steel bars that are 5mm thick, the lock offers a very respectable 85cm of length when locked. But with the Foldylock Forever’s increased plates size and rivet security, some sacrifices are made regarding how practical the lock is to use. The locks featured in this review are super affordablUnusually, there is no strap to hold the lock in place while it’s inside the frame mount (as there is with the Abus and Trelock mounts). Folding locks are used by many cyclists for their increased portability and multiple locking options.

So when you push the Foldylock Forever into the cradle, there’s a small lip that flexes out slightly to allow the lock entry. hardened steel shackle, which is essentially a smaller version of the Kryptonite Fahgettaboudit Mini. When new, I found that it can be quite stiff to insert and remove, but it will loosen up quickly with a bit of use and is much less of a faff to use than mounting systems with straps in the long run.We then compared the X1’s performance to the Kryptonite Fahgettaboudit Mini, which has long been one of the best D locks on the market. The Abus Bordo 6000, which has been rated Sold Secure Silver for as long as I remember, has just been demoted to Bronze! I did notice that the Forever’s keyhole cover is made from plastic, which isn’t as durable as the 6500’s metal cover and is already showing slight signs of wear.
