“I had a Hiplok that I unfortunately lost recently. No problem, I thought, I'll just buy a new one. I settled on the Hiplok Gold and the heftiness and solidity of the chain feel right in line with the previous lock's quality. Unfortunately, I really hate the clasp that locks it up instead of the velcro I had previously. It feels like it's much harder to dial in the fit, and it makes actually locking the chain more of a PITA than the previous lock. I'm not going to return the lock, and I don't want to make it sound like I'm unhappy about my purchase. But this is a situation where it feels like it's a step backwards in build”
Thanks for leaving us a review and providing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you’re finding the clasp tricky to use. This is certainly something we’ll keep in mind for future product development. Our sleeve for the Hiplok Original uses velcro instead of a clasp so while the fit will be a little tighter, this sleeve can be used with the Gold. We sell replacement sleeves separate on our website.
“On my first outing with the lock, despite the lock probably weighing more than my bike, I did not notice the addition weight on my person, it took me half of my train journey to realise I was still wearing it. I appreciate the adjustable nature of it, as it doubles as a nice little belt to keep my shirt down and make sure I’m not accidentally flashing my underwear to any drivers or cyclists behind me! Very good product and would recommend :)”
“Je suis très content de mon achat,le matériel est de très bonne qualité, en complément d'un D1000, c'est la combinaison parfaite
En plus ce modèle est réfléchissant”
“Strong, but heavy lock! It sometimes is a bit unclear how to turn the key to lock it, there isn't a noticable click or anything to confirm the locking, but on the otherside, you cannot accidentally lock it, when the key isn't arround.”
