> 3 dayWow, this thing is pretty awesome. And heavy. Not Pewag or ABUS hardness (what is?), but certainly good enough to deter most all bad guys. I really like the moveable sleeve that allows access to links up the chain. Gives me a super tight fit using my Stanley padlock against the Cinch Ring. My application is to protect RV components, and I think it works great. Very reasonable price for the quality received.

> 3 dayBought this for the ability to loop one end. The chain is heavy duty. Hopefully it will at a minimum deter theft, and at a maximum not be easy to cut with bolt cutters if attempted . . . .

Greater than one weekHigh Security or Heavy Duty does not adequately describe this chain. I bought the 5 version so that I could run it through a couple of the holes in the body of my car at the back of the inside of my trunk (at the corner where the cross-member is that supports to the top of the back seat). The cinch design was essential for this. Now the chain reaches a few feet out in my trunk, and I can lock all sorts of things to it (like my high-security brief case or any lock box, etc.). It wont stop every thief, but it will definitely slow them down. In fact, if a thief does somehow steal anything, Im fairly certain they wont do it by cutting this chain. Im attaching photos showing how Im using the chain in my trunk.

> 3 dayI’m returning this product because I underestimated how heavy duty this would be!! I remember reading the specs and thinking it didn’t sound THAT heavy, but this thing is massive. My (admittedly old) mother had a hard time picking it up. Would be good for a motorcycle, or maybe leave it where you lock up, but I was looking for something I could wrap around my seat tube and quickly chain up to a pole while I’m out running errands. Riding a bike with this thing IS an errand in itself. Seems extremely well built. I live in Los Angeles and have had three bikes stolen. This chain would definitely NOT be the weakest link, I’m sure any wannabe thieves would try sawing the pole it’s locked to or drilling the lock before they even attempt any funny business with this chain. It’s almost as thick as my wrist. I’ll be getting something much much lighter (in addition to my 2 other u-locks).

> 3 dayThis is a reasonably priced security chain that works well as an additional security deterrent for a utility trailer in storage. The chain is applied around the axle on the inward side of the leaf spring and the end link of the chain fitted thru the wheel with a padlock, to secure the wheel from turning. A small amount of grinding to the wheel opening allowed one chain link to just fit thru from the back side of the wheel. A Stanley S828-160 CD8820 Shrouded Hardened Steel Padlock was then used to secure the wheel from turning. Wheel Locks and a Proven Industries 2516 Hitch Lock are other great deterrents used...

> 3 dayIt is impossible for a criminal to break this chain unless they were Superman mixed with Thanos. They would break the lock before this chain. And its uber heavy. Like heavier than any baby.

> 3 dayNow this is a Chain! I guess someone could maybe get trough this thing but it aint worth the time or energy, or the plasma cutter it would take. This thing is incredibly strong! Couple this with a forged lock and feel pretty darn good that your bike/Cycle will be there when you return. Schlage continues to live up to its name with this product. Threw this into my backpack and my wife uses it for resistance training lol. Yeah its that heavy duty.

> 3 dayAfter researching bicycle locks, chain reviews and bike theft videos, being on my 4th bike, living in NYC. Im happy to own this chain now. Its not too heavy, its what is needed to prevent it from being able to get clipped. Plus I got some exercise being able to do some bicep curls after unwrapping it. Along with the chain I got the Kryptonite Evolution Series 4 Bicycle Disc Bike Lock and feel my bicycles safe. Of course its important also where exactly and how to lock the bike. Theres still the seat and front wheel to consider. Perhaps another U-lock for the front-wheel.

> 3 daySolid, long enough to secure bike. Best use _ stationary security in medium security area, perfect to secure to the car bike rack . A BIT TOO HEAVY TO TAKE WITH YOU if you are riding light weight expensive road bike, but may be OK for e bike or gravel bike with a luggage rack . This chain is resistant to hand held boltcutter, BUT NOT grinder.

> 3 dayOne star removed because the round link is awkward to pull links through and its a bit overpriced. Aside from that, its pretty formidable. Its a bit too heavy for bikes, so if youre biking with it youll want a bike frame bag to store it, and it works especially well with a 2-inch shackle round body padlock because you can fit an end link and a body link inside it nice and tightly without removing the sleeve (I use a Master Lock M930XKADLH, but any similar lock should work)
