Kryptonite Locks

Buying Kryptonite
Kryptonite makes Tough Locks for a Tough World. Their reputation isn't unfounded, as you will see by the legendary story where Kryptonite took on the best - New York thieves - and won! But there is much more to Kryptonite than that one story.

Not all Kryptonite locks are created equal. Some offer greater security. Some offer greater convenience and ease of use, but are a bit less secure. To help you choose the right lock for your security needs, check the K-Tough Security rating included in the product description.

The K-Tough Security Rating System is a proprietary system that compares the security value of all Kryptonite locks. Based on a 5 K-Star system, the more stars the lock earns, the more secure the lock is. Locks with a 5 K-Star rating offer you maximum security protection. For those times when you need the absolute ultimate security protection, look for the Kryptonite locks with a 5+ K-Star rating.

If the lock has no K-Star security rating, remember that it will only offer a small amount of theft deterrence and should be used for a "quick, convenient" lock up for items of lesser value or as a secondary security device.

Kryptonite Reviews

"Sometimes when we receive a product to review we are immediately impressed when we open the box. This was certainly the case with the New York Fahgettaboudit."
ATV Illustrated, May, 2004

"Kryptonite's New York series (New York Fahgettaboudit, New York Noose, etc.) of case-hardened square-link steel chains utilize a unique disc lock that cannot be defeated by bolt cutters or pry bars."
Snowbound Magazine, January, 2004

"Our advice? If cost isn't an issue, go for the New York (disc lock)- you don't want to skimp on security and the NY is simply the best disk lock we've encountered. Plus the price is insignificant compared to what your bike's worth."
