Product Information

Full details

The Master Lock Glow Cable Combination Lock is designed for cyclists and homeowners who need a reliable, high-visibility security solution for equipment like bikes, lawnmowers, and strollers. Its primary benefit is the combination of a robust, 12mm thick braided steel cable and phosphorescent dials that ensure ease of use in low-light conditions. While it offers excellent versatility for various items, users should note that as a cable lock, it is intended for quick stops and moderate security risks rather than high-theft urban environments.

FAQs

Can I use this lock in the rain?

Yes, the lock is designed with weather-resistant materials, though it is good practice to keep the mechanism lubricated.

How do I reset my combination?

Please follow the instructions included in the packaging, which detail the internal reset dial process once the current code is entered.

Is the cable cut-resistant?

The braided steel cable offers high resistance to opportunistic theft, though like all cable locks, it can be defeated by heavy-duty power tools.

Does the glow-in-the-dark feature require batteries?

No, the dials use phosphorescent material that absorbs ambient light and emits it in the dark; no batteries are needed.

Can the mounting bracket fit all bike frames?

The universal bracket is designed to fit most standard bicycle frame tubes, though it may not fit oversized aero-tubing.

Troubleshooting

Dials are difficult to turn

Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the dial tracks and rotate them several times to distribute the product.

Forgot the combination

The combination cannot be reset if forgotten; it is highly recommended to store the code in a digital password manager or a secure physical location immediately after setting.

Mounting bracket feels loose

Check the mounting screws on the bracket and ensure the rubber shim provided is properly positioned to provide a snug fit against your frame tube.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-visibility dials are excellent for night use
  • Generous 1.8-meter cable length reaches difficult anchor points
  • Keyless entry eliminates the risk of losing keys
  • Vinyl coating protects gear from surface abrasions
  • Versatile mounting bracket allows for effortless transportation

Cons

  • Cable locks are susceptible to bolt cutters if left unattended for long periods
  • Combination mechanism requires periodic testing to ensure smooth rotation
  • Not recommended as a primary lock for high-value bicycles in high-risk areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set your own combination, start with the factory default code (usually 0-0-0-0). Once opened, rotate the internal reset dial as indicated by the product manual, set your preferred digits, and return the reset dial to its original position. Ensure you record your code in a safe place.

For mounting, use the provided bracket to clamp the lock to your bicycle frame. Verify that the mounting bolts are tightened securely to prevent rattling while riding. Regarding care, the lock is weather-resistant, but periodically applying a light spray of silicone-based lubricant into the dial mechanism will keep it moving smoothly, especially if you frequently ride in wet or dusty conditions. Avoid using heavy oils, as these can attract grit and cause the dials to seize over time.
