Lock Weight

As the manufacturers do not give it in most cases and a forum search did not turn up anything I thought I would start a thread regarding this. It might help riders concerned with security versus weight make a decision. Please weigh and list your locks.

Kryptonite M18WL U lock weighs about 6 pounds. This is the full size version of the Fahgettaboudit lock and is listed under Powersports on the Kryptonite web site.

Kryptonite NY Fahgettaboudit U lock weighs 4.25 pounds.

OnGuard Bulldog Mini U lock weighs just under 2 pounds.

On-guard Bulldog Standard U lock just under 3 pounds

Abus Steel-o chain 6mm x 2.5 feet - 1.75 pounds

Abus Steel-o chain 7mm x 3.58 ft - 3.25 pounds
