Description of OnGuard Bulldog DT 5012 Bicycle U-Lock and Extra Security Cable

Popular shackle length with extra locking options provided by the included 4 foot fully coated, braided steel cable.
Keep your bike safe while visiting theft-heavy neighborhoods with the OnGuard Bulldog DT U-lock, which comes with an extra security cable. The Bulldog DT offers a 13mm hardened steel shackle that provides maximum cut resistance, along with an X2 double-bolt locking mechanism that locks to two sides of the bar, providing added strength and high pull resistance. The pick-, pull-, and drill-resistant M-Cylinder delivers even more protection, with a BumpBlok mechanism that renders bump keys useless. Similar to the tumbler systems found on high-end European autos, the M-Cylinder has more than 100,000 possible key combinations. These tumblers won't turn unless the key is properly inserted, protecting both the key and tumbler from damage due to misuse. The lock mechanism is also completely encased in ultra-hardened steel to resist drilling, picking, or pulling, while an integrated dust cover protects the internals from moisture and debris.

As a bonus, the Bulldog DT includes a heavy-duty, extra-flexible 10mm steel cable, letting you double your protection or lock up another bike on the same rack. Other features include an all-tube, quick-release, multi-position mounting bracket, protective coatings on the cross bar and shackle, and a tough vinyl cable cover. The Bulldog DT comes with five laser-cut keys, one of which has an LED micro-light to help you open the lock after dark. OnGuard believes so strongly in the Bulldog DT that it offers an anti-theft protection offer of $1,501 for bikes and $501 for power sport vehicles.

Sports reviews of OnGuard Bulldog DT 5012 Bicycle U-Lock and Extra Security Cable

Customer Review: Couple of thumbs up
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

The quality of material and the smooth key operation are some of the best features of the Bulldog DT. I have been renting scooters and bikes for years, that require this type of lock, so I know what to look for when it comes to quality and durabilty. For the price that I paid, and considering the free cable included, there wasn't a better deal online.

Customer Review: Decent Lock
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

This lock is pretty good. It's a little too short in length to fit both the rear wheel and frame around the bike post outside my local library, but it does fit with the frame. Also, the cable is just long enough to fit my 700c front tire. It came with a lot of keys, but the light up key doesn't work.

Customer Review: Inexpensive, effective, bike protection
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

Great lock for the price. Does everything it says it does. The little mounting piece shifted, but I just popped it back into place without a problem.

I found that if you lube both ends of the U it slides in easier and doesn't get stuck at all. So far so good.

Customer Review: Good lock
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

The lock is easy to use, and the cable that comes with it is very convenient. However, the piece on the U lock that is meant to attach the U-lock to the bike frame (while riding) is loose, and occasionally slides down. This prevents the U-lock from locking.

Customer Review: good, but bracket broke
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

exactly as the title states. i like the lock itself but the bracket broke within a day. not only that, i mounted the bracket wrong and there is no way to undo the bracket once you mount it. kinda silly.
