Re-adjust the mounting frame straps to ensure a tight fit on the downtube. Make sure the frame's tubing is within the compatible diameter range.

Pros and Cons
Pros
- Constructed with highly resistant hardened steel for strong security.
- Includes a practical mounting frame for on-bike storage.
- Comes with three keys and offers key duplication.
- The loop design provides versatile locking options.
Cons
- Can be relatively heavy compared to lighter security options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Identify a suitable location on your bicycle's downtube, typically between the seat tube and the head tube.
- Ensure the tube diameter is within the 20 to 80 mm range.
- Attach the adjustable mounting frame to the chosen tube, securing it firmly.
- Slide the Zefal K-Traz U13 L Lock into the mount. It should click into place.
Compatibility:
The lock itself is a universal security device. The included mounting frame is compatible with most standard bicycle downtube diameters ranging from 20 mm to 80 mm. It is not compatible with frames that do not have a suitable tube for mounting or frames with unusually shaped tubing that would prevent secure attachment of the bracket.
Care:
- Keep the lock mechanism clean and free of dirt and debris. A dry cloth can be used for general cleaning.
- Periodically lubricate the keyhole with a graphite-based lubricant (avoid oil-based lubricants which can attract dirt) to ensure smooth operation of the lock cylinder.
- Store the lock properly on its mount when not in use to prevent it from accumulating excessive moisture or dirt.
