OnGuard Bulldog MINI TC 5013TC Bicycle U Lock – Reviews

I won’t reiterate what everyone else has been saying about this lock. It’s a really good and sturdy lock without the weight. But there are a couple of minor complaints that I have.

Con:
- The lock has two yellow covers on both ends of the lock, unlike the photo. This poses a problem because the yellow covers are plastic and tend to move around. This can lead to the cover of the holes becoming blocked and the lock cannot get in. But it is easy to move it back to the way it was, so not a big problem at all, just a minor one.

- At you can see from the photo, the left side of the lock has an attachment on it that attaches to the bike. The problem with this is that the attachment slips off sometimes when the lock is unlocked. Although you can simply take the attachment off, that part of the lock is thinner than the rest of the lock, making it look weak.

Overall, a very good lock, just those two minor problems.

The same price or less than a cheaper “no-name” U-Bolt lock from a discount store. And living in the mid-west (close to the distribution center) even with “Free Shipping” on orders of $25 or more, it only took THREE DAYS!

I already had a good cable – so combined with this OnGuard Bulldog MINI, most thieves will simply look elsewhere. Any bike is susceptible to theft now-a-days. Doesn’t matter if you have a $75 discount store bike, a $750 performance hybrid or a $7,500 road bike – lock it up. All bikes need a good lock.

Edit: Recently someone DID try to get my bike. They did NOT succeed. Instead, they got frustrated & slashed a tire. JERK. Anyway…combine this U-Bolt lock with a good cable passed through the wheels & most thieves will simply look elsewhere or will not succeed.

I own this and the standard bulldog lock which is huge, heavy and hard to carry. It seems like the onguard locks are built better than the kryptonite locks and the local shop even recommended the onguard locks over kryptonite. The small size makes it really easy to carry because the lock holder is crap. Overall I’m super happy with it, its definitely worth the 30 bucks I paid for it.

Several aspects of the Bulldog MINI U-Lock make it a very good choice for the commuter in areas where moderate security is adequate. First, the lock is compact, easy to transport in most types of bike-mounted bags or packs, or on the frame mount (not used by this reviewer). The compact size is just right for a single point connection of a frame component to a heavy duty ‘U’ rack or a parking meter. It won’t fit around the trunks of even small street trees – this is not usually a problem, since street signs and other urban elements offer plenty of casual anchorage points in most areas when bike racks are missing or full. Second, the lock is light-weight by U-lock standards, so it won’t feel like a ship’s anchor in your bike bag or on the mount. Third, the plastic finish coat and end caps are easy on your bike. And fourth, the five keys including a lighted key that are provided with the lock offer more lost or spare key convenience than is probably warranted.

In all, a solid, ec
