Cable Locks

About

Cable locks give your motorcycle flexible, lightweight security for fast everyday use. This range covers Lok-Up combination cables and Kovix alarmed braided steel options, built to thread through wheels, frames and fixed anchor points. Pack one for transit or layer it with a disc lock for double protection on the street. How to choose a motorcycle cable lock Cable thickness drives security. Thinner cables stay portable for daily errands, while thicker braided steel resists bolt croppers far better. The Lok-Up combination cable runs 80cm long at 1.5mm, ideal as a quick visual deterrent, while the Lok-Up wire security cable stretches to 1.8m at 10mm for anchoring through wheels and rails. Kovix adds an alarmed braided steel cable at 24mm thickness and 1700mm length for a louder layer of defence. Type Cable Size Best Use Combination cable 1.5mm x 80cm Lightweight deterrent, helmet tethering Wire security cable 10mm x 1.8m Looping through frame to a fixed anchor Alarmed braided steel 24mm x 1700mm Audible alert plus thicker bolt-cropper resistance Zip-tie cable 50cm length Helmet and luggage tethering Layering cables for real security A cable alone is a deterrent, not a vault. Thread the 1.8m cable through both wheels and the frame, then loop it to a ground anchor or solid post so the bike cannot be lifted into a van. Pair a 24mm alarmed unit with a disc lock to combine an audible 100dB-class warning with a physical block. Zip-tie style cables at 50cm suit luggage and helmet security where 1.5mm thickness is plenty. Keep the cable off the ground to deny leverage and store it dry to protect the internal strands.
