ABUS BORDO BIG XPlus Alarm 6000KA Lock
The BORDO Alarm 6000KA offers good theft protection for bikes thanks to the alarm function and advanced locking cylinder.
Equipped with a modern locking cylinder system, the XPlus, you get the first ABUS alarm folding lock with even better protection. The XPlus cylinder ensures that thieves have an even harder time with manipulation attempts such as picking. In addition, a loud alarm of up to 100 dB attracts attention in the event of an attempted theft. Thanks to the intelligent motion sensor technology, the bike lock can even distinguish between small vibrations and persistent theft attempts. The 3D Position Detection ensures that when the wheel is nudged briefly, for example by a football, only a short beep sounds at first. Stronger and longer lasting movement triggers the loud alarm sound.
Want to be on the safe side? Then drive thieves to despair with the BORDO 6000KA!

Big AND Heavy
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Regret buying this monster. Not only is it huge and difficult to fit on my bike, but it weighs a ton. Wish I could return it.

Requires a lot of frame
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
Unfortunately, the long length of this item when mounted won't fit my bike frame. It seems like a great lock, especially the alarm function, but it is heavy and not a good candidate to just carry on a rack bag. Keep in mind that, despite the quoted dimensions, you also need a few inches to disengage it from the mount. That's where the problem lies. It's just too big for many bikes. Also unfortunately, it comes with two methods of mounting: to the water bottle mounts or with included zip ties. The instructions to mount it to the water bottle mounts instructs you to cut off the rubber tabs used for the zip tie approach, and I did that. Now I can't return it and honestly, I think that is unfair. Note also that the mount is designed for a typical round tube, no options for a wider tube like on most newer bikes.
