Security tailored to urban travel

The KryptoLok 2 Mini-7 features a robust construction and a relatively compact design. Its 12.7 mm hardened steel shackle provides the first line of defence against cutting attempts, whilst the double-locking system offers additional protection against attacks aimed at twisting or forcing the lock.

The high-security disc-type cylinder is also designed to resist attempts at picking and drilling. Together, these features form a comprehensive solution for securing a bike whilst parked in town.

For optimum protection, it is recommended that you secure both the frame and one wheel to a sufficiently sturdy fixed point, minimising as much as possible the space available inside the U-lock.

A Mini-7 design for everyday convenience

Measuring 17.8 cm in length and 8.2 cm in width, the KryptoLok Mini-7 prioritises compactness. This design minimises bulk and reduces the space available for certain lock-picking tools.

The downside of this compact design is that you need to choose your locking point carefully: depending on the configuration of the bike and street furniture, a longer lock may offer more options.

The supplied FlexFrame-U mount makes it easy to carry the lock directly on the bike, avoiding the need to put it in a bag.

Two keys and the Key Safe programme

The KryptoLok 2 Mini-7 comes with two stainless steel keys. Their ergonomic design is specifically intended to minimise the twisting force that could damage the key.

The product also benefits from Kryptonite ’sKey Safe programme, which allows you to register your keys to facilitate their replacement in the event of loss, subject to the programme’s terms and conditions.
