    Perfect and secure for 2 e-bikes and a ground anchor,1/2 the price of similar lock/ chains and one key had an led light on it.
    What more can you need to keep items like bikes secure

    The chain seems sturdy and we’ll constructed, disappointing to see the quality of the lock does not match. Lock is light in the hand for its size, and has a good amount of play in the shackle. Overall good value for money, and comes with 3 keys.

    Ho comprato questa catena per una bici, per quelle situazioni in cui si magari costretti a lasciarla fuori a lungo di sera. Apparentemente sembra davvero robusta, il lucchetto enorme. Si spera che scoraggi i ladri. Io comunque la associo anche a un altro bloster a U. Come difetto ha che pesa un’enormit, fra tutto circa 3 kg, per una donna non cos semplice da manovrare e anche nel cestino quando si pedala si sente. Non impossibile portarla, comunque. Come lunghezza comoda anche per abbracciare un palo di quelli un po’ pi grossi e su quelli sottili non tocca comunque terra. Sconsiglio la misura pi grande da 180, sarebbe davvero troppo, quella va bene solo per le moto secondo me.

    Davvero pesante, 3 kg!

    I am impressed with this lock! It is certainly heavy but there is a lot of it! The chain has more than adequate length to lock your motorcycle to a fixed item of street furniture in most situations. If I can’t find something secure I put it through the front wheel and lock it to the centre stand so my bike can’t be wheeled away. No lock is 100% but this does give me a degree of confidence from the opportunist thief. It is well made and the locking mechanism operates smoothly but I haven’t left mine out in all weathers so I don’t know about long term durability. A quick squirt of lubricating fluid in the mechanism wouldn’t do any harm though. The protective sheath around the chain could be a little longer to prevent scratching but this is a minor grumble. When I lock my motorcycle to my ground anchor in a locked garage I feel as confident as possible without spending a small fortune on a more advanced lock.

    But it it fiddly to use and there are no drainage holes in the lock so it fills with water, as a result I am a little concerned with what happens when the weather freezes.
    It also feels really light for its size, the lock with all its plastic feels like a toy in comparison to other locks on the market.

    Great value for money, as compared to the same lock on the manufacturer website, like half price!
    Very substantial and quite heavy, probably a bit to heavy to carry about on your bike, but great to lock up your pride and joy at home.

    Solid as a rock. Insurance approved. Proper length so it goes through bike stand, both wheels and the frame. Got this to leave at work all the time, because it is too big and heavy to commute with. Absolutely 100% awesome. Don’t scrimp by buying cheep stuff get one of these. Better than a killer guard dog!

    Bought to use for the bikes in my shed. I already had the shorter chained version of this but needed a longer one due to repositioning the ground anchor. Works very well and the original has survived a couple of winters out in the shed with no issues at all. Heavy chain and lock so definitely not one to carry around with you. Spare keys are great and led in one light is great when you’re fumbling around in the dark getting your bike locked away for the night. Sold secure gold rating and cheaper than some alternatives.

    Works well and is really sturdy, but the mechanism is frail; the first lock I ordered jammed after less than a month, thankfully right AFTER I had opened it and unlocked the bike. The replacement is working fine so far but I am regularly oiling it to prevent it from getting stuck again.

    The chain itself is only about 1600mm long rather than the 1800mm I expected from the description. If you include the supplied padlock, then it is close to 1800mm. I’ve had to buy an additional cable to loop through the wheels and am using the chain just for the frame. Apart from that it does seem strong and well made, so I’m keeping it.

    Buen candado y cadena indicado para motos, no indicado para bicis y menos an para llevarlo encima, ya que es de gran tamao y el conjunto pesa ms de 3 kg. Es el tpico candado que dejas fijo en el garaje para atar la moto a la rueda trasera (nunca a la delantera, que se desmonta fcilmente).

    Esta marca es poco conocida, pero ofrece un producto que parece muy robusto y bastante seguro, aproximadamente a la mitad de precio que las marcas referencia. Tena uno clavado a este en cuanto a tamao y prestaciones y cost el doble. Buen producto.

    Me ha gustado que tiene la mxima seguridad, un nivel diez.

    Es una candena grande, fuerte y pesada, protegida con una funda de tela o cordura con un buen candado de seguridad.

    Es muy pesada, por lo que creo que no est diseada para llevar en la bici o moto, normalmente.

    La voy a utilizar en el garaje , para candar la moto a una pletina que tengo en el suelo enterrada con una argolla.

    En mi opinin es un excelente candado, por supuesto que si un ladrn profesional lo quiere romper, lo romper, pero le va a costar mucho trabajo.

    Creo que no es barato, cuesta 50 euros, pero realmente es buen candado y cuando lo tienes en las manos te das cuenta de la calidad que tiene.

    Maxima seguridad.Nivel 10. Pesado, fuerte, buen diseño.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersVery heavy chain and sturdy looking padlock with Gold Standard security rating which should give the highest amount of security when chained to an immovable object.
    The sad thing is that it won’t prevent the most determined chancer or professional bike thief from stealing my bike but at least I will know that I’ve done my best to prevent it from happening and the insurance company should pay out.
    The black sleeve is nice addition too as it prevents scratches to my paint.
    BTW I’ve also ordered a Gold Standard U lock from the same maker to double my chances of keeping my bike safe.

    Lo primero que tengo que decir es que es ms grande y pesado de lo que puede parecer en las fotos, pesa ms de 3kg. Los eslabones tambin bastante grandes y tiene un total de 26.

    La parte de la cadena est cubiera con un forro protector. El candado tiene un doble recubrimiento de goma. Viene con cuatro llaves, y una de ellas tiene una luz led, pro lo que es un poco ms grande que las otras tres.

    La verdad es que dejando a parte lo mucho que pesa, es un candado muy seguro.

    Se trata de un conjunto muy seguro y a la vez tambin muy pesado, ya que supera los 3 kg de peso. Los eslabones de la cadena son bastante grandes. El total de la cadena est formado por 26 eslabones, cada eslabn tiene unos 6’5 cm de largo y su grosor es de 1 cm. La mayor parte de estos eslabones estn recubiertos por un forro protector para evitar posibles deterioros. El candado es muy seguro y tiene un doble recubrimiento de goma. Segn he podido calcular, una vez que se echa el candado, el arco de seguridad que proporciona la cadena viene a medir internamente unos 50 cm, por lo que esta sera la distancia mxima que tenemos cuando vamos a usarlo. Viene acompaado por cuatro llaves, una de ellas es ms grande porque tiene incorporada una luz led. En general, me ha parecido un candado muy seguro y de una excelente calidad.

    El Yale YCL3 es una cadena con candado diseado para asegurar cualquier cosa, pero tambin puedes utilizarlo para inmovilizar tu bicicleta a un objeto fijo vertical, como una seal de trfico, una barandilla, o unas rejas.

    Aunque llevar esta cadena en la bici implica un aumento de peso muy sustancial.

    El candado es bastante robusto, seguro, slido, y bastante bien fabricado.

    Est diseado para que no se pueda abrir con palanca, o si atacan la cerradura.

    La dimensin de la cadena es de 1100 cm aproximadamente, y el peso es de 3105 gramos.

    Trae cuatro llaves, y una de ellas posee una luz Led.

    En realidad me ha gustado esta cadena con candado, y lo puedes utilizar para cualquier cosa.

    Mi experiencia con l ha sido muy positiva.

    Extremadamente seguro.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersYale YCL3/10/110/1 Maximum Defendor – Cadena de proteccin y candado (1100 mm), color negro

    Lo que ms me ha sorprendido al recibirlo es su tamao y peso. Cuando ves las fotos del anuncio te esperas una cosa ms pequea, pero es enorme. Creo que la primera foto del anuncio debera ser la tercera, con esa si te haces una idea de lo que es y de su tamao. Se trata de una cadena de eslabones de seccin hexagonal, con una cubierta de nailon, y un candado enorme. Para que te hagas una idea, mide 12 por 12 por 4 centmetros y medio el candado. El peso del conjunto es de 3 kilogramos, y la medida de la cadena un metro y diez centmetros y la de cada eslabn seis centmetros por cuatro. Viene con cuatro llaves, tres normales y una con luz led. En la escala de seguridad de la casa Yale de 1 a 10, est en el 10, ya que la cadena es anti cizalla, anti taladro y antigolpes. La verdad es que si se la ve muy resistente y lo que protejas con ella estar bastante seguro. La puedes usar para casi todo, aunque yo no te la recomendara para una bicicleta, ms que nada por lo que abulta y pesa. En ese caso no resulta cmodo ir acarreando esta cadena con el candado.

    This is a seriously strong chain and lock and I cannot imagine it being forced very easily – certainly not by the casual thief. It is very heavy and robust and provided good security for any lockup or place needing more than standard levels of protection. Highly Recommended

    The first thing you notice about the Maximum Defendor (other than the spelling) is the sheer weight. This is not a chain you will pop in your pocket! Very, very strong in all parts, I haven’t tried to destroy it but it seems to be incredibly robust, I couldn’t see any obvious weak points.

    Recommended when you need a lot of protectio

    There is no way I’d be cycling around with this lock as it is VERY heavy and it would take up half of my backpack space, however, as a safety lock for the bike at home or for a shed reinforcement lock or any other use, it’s good and certainly will take some work to break up.
    It’s pricey, but if you have the need, this is a great quality produc

    I use a motorcycle to commute to work, and to park in the city centre on a weekly basis. As everyone knows from news headlines theft is a major problem — and believe me there is nothing worse than seeing an empty space where your pride and joy once stood. This is where a high quality chain and lock combination come into their own. Although this is predominantly marketed at cyclists, I would imagine many would be hesitant to use this on a day to day basis purely for the weight. When placed in a backpack you can certainly feel the weight of the chain. However, if you’re looking for a way to securely fasten your push bike overnight at home, this is a perfect product.

    As you would expect from a well-known security brand, this chain set does not disappoint. The links feel sturdy and are covered in a hard wearing sleeve which helps prevent damage or scratches when the chain is being carried around, or attached to a motorcycle/bicycle. The links are not the thickest I have seen, but will do a good job at deterring opportunist thieves in city centres. The lock feels sturdy, and the open/close mechanism is easy to operate. One really nice feature is the LED torch on the primary key, which makes life so much easier when you’re trying to find the keyhole at night. The set also comes with 4 keys in total, which is a very welcome touch. After using this set for a week day to day, I have experienced no issues with the performance of this product. I imagine that it will last for a long time, so long as the lock is regularly lubricated.

    Overall I highly recommend this chain for people wanting to keep their valuables safe at home, or out and about if you don’t mind carrying the weight.

    If any one lives in a highly populated urban area and owns a motorbike or anything that would attract the eye of a discerning felon, then this product is the thing to have. My son has a moped that is particularly attractive to this element of society, so I can attest first hand what a boon this chain lock has become to us.

    First of all the weight of it is heavy, its not something that you could practically carry around with you, unless it is in a car or van. I have pinned a fixing point into the concrete outside my house, this is where my son parks his bike. On parking he uses the chain and lock to pin his moped to the ground disabling any attempt to deny him ownership. I can tell you that’s one look of this chain and if they are particularly determined, handling of this chain will convince them very quickly, that the many hours of hard work to undermine this set up is just not worth the effort.

    The 18cm long, 10mm hardened steel chain is impressively heavy and solid, then one look at the high security lock, which is resistant to drill, pulling and picking, renders the miscreant ineffective and searching for easier prey.

    The chain itself is encapsulated within a strong sleeve that will afford protection to any paintwork/metal that may be in contact with the chain.

    I earnestly assure you that if this lock and chain is used to secure your property, then this chain and lock will not be the weakest part of your security setup.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersThis Yale chain and lock weighs a massive 4.63kg with a chain nearly 6′ long and with links as big as a ship’s anchor! Well, ok that last bit is an exaggeration, but if you are thinking of buying a security chain for a buggy or mobility scooter (my reason for ordering) or a push bike, I think you might do yourself and the vehicle a bit of damage, although the lock is rubberised and most of the chain is covered by a removable tough material sleeve to avoid scratches. This is much too heavy to be carrying on a small bike or buggy though. The other suggested uses are for more static valuables such as a parked trailer, a stack of garden furniture or a BBQ, and of course, the most likely use, a motorbike– for which this is worth more than 5 stars!
    I have given this top rating because I think any thief would be daunted by the size, weight and quality of this chain–they would need an extremely powerful tool to cut through this monster. Normal drills and bolt cutters would not make any headway.
    Yale have given it a lifetime guarantee and have provided 4 keys, one of which has an integral LED light.

    Very robust. And extremely secure.
    I have used this is replace a much lighter chain used to secure Dad’s mobility scooter. Dad even in mid 80’s can take off and fit this chain probably due to how well made it is and how easy the lock is also.
    Slips round a post we had fitted before then through scooter handle bars. To secure the scooter firmly.
    There isn’t anyway someone can cut through this chain certainly not fast. I am very impressed.
    Good value compared to replacement of Dad’s scooter so extremely pleased.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersThis is what I would normally consider suitable to lock up a motorbike rather than a bicycle – it’s hugely heavy – thr 1.8m version complete with lock weighs in at a hefty 4.5Kg. It’s something you’re certainly going to notice in your back pack – less so in a pannier bag or basket. It’s big enough that you couldn’t really wrap it around a saddle or the frame to carry. It would get in the way of something. You could wear it across your shoulder at a push, but it will shortly start to dig into your shoulder. It’s not too clanky because of the cloth covering, but it doesn’t provide much protective padding.

    So what’s it good for? Well, if you have a very expensive bike, and want to discourage someone from stealing it – you could do a lot worse than this – the lock and chain are massive, and someone would have to be pretty determined, and have access to something like an angle grinder to get it off – attracting a lot of attention in the process.

    However, most expensive bikes are expensive because they’re lightened, and any lightening of your bike is going to be more than cancelled out by the weight of this lock and chain. Just bear that in mind. I think this is something you’re going to leave locked to the bike rack at home or at the train station, and not cart back and forth with you every day.

    It comes complete with a generous set of 4 keys – which are nicely made and not too large. Also a key code card which you can presumably use to order replacement keys – should you lose all 4 of the originals!

    The lock can only be locked with the key – it won’t ‘push’ lock – which is actually a good feature, because it means you can’t accidentally lock it and then realise your key is at home.

    So in summary – this is an immensely secure lock – very intimidating to any thief, but trade that off against the weight of the lock and chain if you’re planning to carry it with you rather than use it as a permanent placement at your place of work or at home.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersThis lock is absolutely mammoth. It was so much heavier than I expected and when I saw the lock and chain upon opening the box I was genuinely shocked. My husband wanted to use this for a lock box with tools in and his face said it all when he was this. He took it straight down to his van and has since shown a lot of the guys on site just how good this lock and chain is. I personally haven’t seen a chain like it and I cannot imagine anyone being able to get through it.

    This chain and lock is an absolute beast! A real meaty, heavy item. Too big for a pushbike but great for a motorbike. It would also anchor just about anything you like! Like a caravan, trailer or ladders etc. The lock itself is very easy to operate and very quick to open and close.

    I knew this was a heavy device when I opened the door and the postman needed two hand to hold the box. Weighing in at a little over 3Kg, this is a substantial lock and chain. Not something you’d want to carry around with you, but perfect for use in a shed or communal bike stand or storage area.
    The heavy 1.1 metre chain is encased in a thick vinyl protective cover. The hasp of the lock is a U-bolt that fits into two holes in the heavy lock. Four keys are provided, one of which has an inbuilt LED light, which provides just enough to insert it into the lock in the dark. Lock and unlock is just a quarter turn of the key. Keys come with a security code so that, in the unlikely event of losing all four keys, replacements can be obtained from Yale.
    Be in no doubt, this lock is a significant deterrent, not only to an opportunist thief, but also to a determined criminal. Your bike, or anything else of value protected by this lock, would certainly not be the first target.

    Crikey. Yale were not mucking about with this chain and lock. Its a very duty bad boy.

    Weights a lot. With a sturdy lock. You get two keys. Best to keep the spare one somewhere safe. I am useless with keys

    Perfect for motorbikes or anything that you want to protect. It has a cover over the actual chain, no rust or attacking individual links.

    Its not messing around.

    An impressively heavy duty chain lock: it really is a beast (it’s intimidating appearance probably enough to put most thieves off – even if tooled up). Incredibly strong (and impregnable to most bolt cutting devices I should imagine) the lock mechanism is really easy to open and re-lock and – though this is the smaller of the two ‘gold standard’ chain locks tHey do – the chain is long enough to tether most things down. The large chunky links are protect3 in a heavy duty vinyl sleeve for added protection. It also comes with four keys (one of which has a built in LED light for easy location of the lock entry (sited in the underside of the locking unit) in poorer lighting conditions. Once unlocked the u-bolt easily comes cleanly out (and as easily goes back in for relocking). All this heavy duty comes at the cost of weight though – weighing in at three kilos (so perhaps not suitable if you were thinking about taking it with you with your bike, for example). That said the weight/robustness if it is the point. You want the toughest to steal? Look no further. The lifetime guarantee also reassures (and even in the unlikely vent of losing all the keys the lock com3s with a security tag serial number for replacement purposes)

    Recommended.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersAs there are several different items on this product page, I should explain that this review is of the Maximum Defendor Chain & Lock. However, rather oddly the one I was sent is 1.1 metres long, not 1.8 metres; the model number on the tag is YCL3/10/110/1, rather than the YCL3/10/180/1 of the 1.8 metres, and the shorter cable isn’t currently offered on Amazon . Otherwise it meets the spec. BTW on Yale’s own website the prices are 55 for the 1.1m and 70 for the 1.8 m.

    This is a very serious lock and chain, weighing over three kilos. The chain is, I read, made of “Titanium Enforced hexagonal hardened steel”, and it would take more than bolt-cutters to get through this. The key is very easy to use. There are four keys supplied, one usefully with a microlight; it would have been good if two of them had the microlight, but you can’t have everything.

    The chain is wholly encased in strong nylon tubing, which makes it easier to carry around.

    Because of the weight, this is a chain for static use only. I imagine it is, quite literally, built to industrial standards, and suitable for protecting any sizeable premises.

    The pack includes a small plastic card with the eight-digit key code, to be kept safe in case you ever need replacement/additional keys.

    Overkill for ordinary domestic use, but if you have shop/workshop premises containing value/confidential items this offers a high level of security, proving Yale is still a benchmark brand.
