Thing is ... it Might be better than a similar cable.

I might stop to think. As it is ... I will wait until a serious test video is released.

As was also noted ... how about a hammer and chisel to the lock body?
Not to mention the laughable 3 digit combo on it...

It MAY be better than a small cable lock, but is it better than 4 small cable locks? Cause that's how many you could buy with the same amount of money. I suppose you're also paying for ease of use but still...

For that price I'd get some cut resistant rope and just TIE it around the bike with a fancy, hard to untie knot. Some ropes are next to impossible to cut with scissors (or dikes, or shears) and must be cut using other methods. (Sharp knife on wooden block for example.)
