I've been looking for my bike a "city-castle". I had the assurance of my bicycle with the so-called "gift ribbons" (thin spiral locks) become somewhat too sensitive. In terms of safety and workmanship of this castle is great. Completing the bike to a lamppost or telephone poles is not a problem. Since the lock very solid, it is relatively heavy and, therefore, to carry something bulky. I have therefore decided that the castle to use as a mere "urban castle". With me in the countryside I still secure with the "ribbon" and trust in the honesty of the people. Conclusion: Who wants to have his bike parked safely, I can only recommend the castle. Those who want to dispense with heavy luggage should choose another castle.
