Cable locks are lightweight bike locks that can be transported around pretty easily with minimal fuss. Like chain locks, they’re also flexible meaning they can be secured to lots of objects.
You may also see combo locks available on the market. These locks are simply cable locks which are unlocked with a combination, rather than a key.
Pros:
•Should not be used as a primary lock
•Should not be used in medium or high risk areas
•Very weak, at risk from all types of attack methods
•Can be cut within seconds by bolt croppers
•Not available at every Sold Secure rating level (only bronze)
•Even if the cable lock looks tough and thick, the internal cable‘s are usually a lot thinner and still very easily cut
