Turbo Como 4.0 Security

[Jenady]

I am curious what Como owners are using to lock their bikes.

I am considering the OnGuard RockSolid U lock but I am concerned about it fitting.

I appreciate any advice.

Abus and Kryptonite folding locks are a better go-to than a u-lock. They offer the same security but can be locked to a wider variety of things moreso than a u lock. Perhaps consider a chain loop style lock, especially if you've got panniers on the bike. Chains are the easiest to lock stuff up with and have some of the more secure locking systems. If you don't run a pannier or bike bag the folding locks have the best holders that come with them. They'll mount where you'd normally have your water bottle. Also they'll usually include a method to attach the holder on an area of the frame that doesn't have any bolts for mounting, if that makes sense.

We use on the Vado and the other E-Bikes a combination of a ringlock (which is mandatory for the insurance) and a secondary lock which is most cases is a chain lock or for a few bikes a folding lock. Pro for the chain locks is that they are more robust and easier to get around an object, con is the weight. The folding locks are easier to store on the bike (cause the come with a carrying case) and are easy to use, just a bit more fidly when to try to get it around a pole and through the frame.

Abus and Kryptonite folding locks are a better go-to than a U-lock. They offer good security and can be attached to a wider variety of objects than a U-lock. Perhaps consider a chain-loop-style lock, especially if you've got panniers on the bike. Chains are the easiest to use when locking up your bike and can offer some very secure locking systems. If you don't use a pannier or bike bag, folding locks often have the best holders, which mount where you'd normally put your water bottle. They usually include a way to attach the holder to a part of the frame without mounting bolts, if that makes sense.

I’d measure the frame and the space available before buying the OnGuard RockSolid U-lock, since fit can depend on where you plan to secure your Como. A sturdy U-lock paired with a secondary chain or cable for the wheels is a good option. Hopefully, some Como owners can share which locks they use and how well they fit their bikes.
