I bought this lock for the purposes of locking my folding bike(s) to the tradition and not so traditional posts when riding around in the city. I thought having this additional few inches (11.5 in) provides me with more room to get around those thicker posts. I have to say that overall this product is great, but not excellent.

The 14mm thickness is pretty standard, about the same thickness that I have for my standard Kryptonite locks. All of which could be cut with the proper tools I want to mention.

The overall lock itself is a bulky, and I haven't yet decided if I want to keep it locked on the post or continue to carry it with my for a regular lock. The mounting bracket is a traditional 2 piece, with 2 various screw sizes so it allows you to mount it on larger sections of the frame. However, what i do like about the mountain mechanism, is that it clips in as your press the u-lock onto the mount, rather than have to slide the mounting piece through a channel (Kryptonite). I have it mounted on my Dahon 16in bike, right on the seat.

The locking mechanism works by having the key inserted into the middle of the straight black piece, and turning it, which the u lock will can be removed by pulling it straight out. I dont think the unlock/lock is as clean as the Kryptonite.

I can lock this bike folded or two bikes, which is the reason why i got it. However, because of the weight of the bike, i will probably keep it limited to transportation to racks nearest campus.

I rate this as 4 stars because the additional few inches is what I was looking for, however, if I were to get the smaller lock, i would likely stay with Kryptonite.

ordered these for boyfriend so he could start biking with me. He needed a longer lock with enough clearance to secure his clunky bike frame when it's folded. The coating on the lock had begun to strip when we first unboxed it. The lock itself does the job (at least it has, so far).

the locking part area is not strong, the iron metal may strong.

My looks like, it is coming apart just a month and half since I bought it.

Honest reviews on OnGuard Pitbull LS U-Lock (Black, 4.53 x 11.5-Inch)

I bought this because my folding bike is rather 'thick' when it's folded, and I wanted to be able to run this lock through the whole thing, and around a pole. It turns out that even this really long lock wasn't enough. I end up just leaving the bike unfolded and locking this around the frame. It's incredibly sturdy and the key mechanism is easy to operate. It's also quite heavy. That's my main complaint. I'd still probably buy another one (albeit a smaller one) if I lost this one for whatever reason.

This look is tough as nails. I always have peace of mind when I leave my bike locked anywhere and my bike costs over $1000 so that's saying something. The only downside is that the clip-on attachment for it gradually slides a bit over time no matter how tight you crank down those screws and the lock itself makes noise if you ride over a bump or uneven surfaces because the lock isn't 100% tight when it is locked. Overall it was a great purchase, plus a good price.
