Pros:
-Hardened, stretched steel
-Double bolted square shaped locks
-Smooth working lock
-Protective rubber coating
-Medium shackle length
-Two keys, one comes with a light
-Replacement keys are easy to get from ABUS
Cons:
-It's heavy
-Mount is tricky to use
Here are some specifics:
It can resist ~13 tons of cutting force, ~7 tons of pulling force, and 1,300 Nm of twisting force. It uses a double-bolted square shackle. The square-in-square shape prevents twisting. That doubles the locking force as well as resistance against tools.

As you can read in my original post, I had some issues with this lock, which was very confusing, as Abus is a top-notch brand and this is one of the best locks on the market. After my beloved bike Peaches was stolen in downtown L.A., I couldn't handle another loss. I'm a full-time student with 3 jobs; my friends kindly kicked in for a new bike, but it fell to me to pick out a lock. After struggling with the lock for 2 months and juggling all my jobs/school, I reached out to Amazon customer service. They said it was "out of the return window timeframe" and referred me to the dealer. The dealer said it was "outside the return window timeframe" and referred me to Amazon C.S. I went back to DealExperts and BEGGED THEM TO TAKE PITY ON ME, as I'm a student with one only way to get around, my bike. For good measure, I wrote this bad review.
DealExperts responded immediately with a return auth for me to give to Amazon C.S., and after a lengthy phone call with Amazon, they shipped me a new lock and it arrived in 24 hours! I still need to send the defective one back, but I just need to print the label, which is free.
I'm super relieved and happy. The new lock works like a dream. I would definitely do business with DealExperts again.
Original Post-I was so excited about this lock. I researched extensively and decided on this one, as it's as close to top of the line as it gets. But, the key has been stiff in the lock. I ride EVERY day, so this became a thing pretty quickly. I thought, NBD, it's new, just needs some use. Nope. It's been 2 months, and I still have to attempt to lock it 8,9,10 times EVERY time. I try turning it around, I try wiggling. I tried bike lube. I tried everything! Now I'm not sure what to do. Everything else about it is amazing. :(
I use it for my Ebike.
I like the feel of the ABUS; the key action is smooth and the mechanism feels well made and sturdy. I understand that any lock is the best until it's defeated, but so far so good.
My one complaint is that even though it's the same size as my K-locks, because of the U-bar shape and layer of sealant, it doesn't readily fit in my back pockets like a K-lock. I ride with my U-locks in my back pocket for security and driver harassment deterrence, so now I need to make other arrangements to keep it handy while riding.
It's easy to mount and rests sturdy. No rattling. Besides its amazing strengths, it's relatively light in weight.
This is my main lock. Although, I obviously don't rely on only one lock. The other is its rival in the same category. The other weighs a ton, tough.
