What Customers Are Saying

The cable lock is generally considered a functional and secure option for locking up bicycles and other items. The cable is described as strong and durable, and the combination lock mechanism is convenient. However, some users have reported difficulty aligning the combination numbers correctly to open the lock, and the inability to change the preset combination is seen as a drawback by some. Additionally, the 4-foot cable length may be too short for certain applications.

The coiling on this cable is really tight

Would Recommend

It's easy to move the dial to get to the right digits but the cable itself is difficult to unwind. That makes it a bit cumbersome.

You can't change the combination

Would Not Recommend

It doesn't say anywhere on the packaging that you can't change the combination (btw numbers go only from 1-6). I needed couple of these for the property gate and I have no intention of remembering bunch of codes. Useless.

Strong and flexible

The cord was the perfect thickness to fit the bottom openings of my grill, but the endings of the lock were too big so I ended up using it for my fire armor case instead. And returned a more expensive cord.

My review for 4 ft (1.2)

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Master Lock - 4ft (1.2m) Long x 5/16in (8mm) Diameter Preset Combination Cable Lock is very easy to use and the combo makes it convenient so that there is no key to lose. The 4 foot length allows for enough reach to whatever you are trying to attach your bike to. The raised number one makes it easy to lock the lock by finding them and aligning them into one line. Overall, easy to use and hi...

Really shoddy

Would Not Recommend

This lock doesn't offer users the option to change the combination. This is preposterous enough; but, beyond that, the coil is so tight it's difficult to stretch from the bike to the parking rack. In 65 years of riding bicycles, I've never seen a more useless chain.

Doesn't include instructions on how to set new com

Would Not Recommend

I've been trying to find online instructions. Done going in circles, I'm ready to return these. I ordered 2 & both have the same generic combination, otherwise I'd just leave an assigned code. The option to access the manual takes you to warranty info (see pic)

This lock has one factory set combination. It does not have the feature of changing the combination like our other locks have.
