 Ideal Length and Strength - September 4, 2010
Loyd E. Eskildson (Phoenix, AZ.)
This is clearly a strong security cable, and in my case, easy to carry. Allows locking both the frame and front time at most any locating - probably could do rear tire as well, but I've never had anyone try to take the rear wheel. The cable loops twice around my waist and fastens easily with my MasterLock key lock for carrying while riding; others may find a different size works better for them. I've found that hanging the cable on my brake lever when parked at home (secured with Kryptonite U-lock around bike frame and a sturdy piece of heavy steel), inside closed garage, ensures that I don't forget to take the cable and lock with when riding. (Before doing that I forgot once, and found myself wanting to go inside places 10+ miles from home, but unable to lock the bike. Doesn't snarl up like small, thin, and easily cut cables.
 Krytonite Better Than Many - But There Still Are Better Options September 4, 2010
MykL954 (Perfectville)
Looping cables through seatposts and quick release tires in conjunction with a Ubolt should deter the casual thief. Cables used alone are almost worthless. Still and all the best option is a case hardened (preferably through-hardened) 1/2 or 3/8th inch square linked chain (harder for cutters to grasp) secured by an impenetrable lock like the Masterlock 37-D with your removed front tire nestled in between your back tire/frame and the stationary object the chain is looped around with your quick release seat/post in your backpack/bag if you're gonna leave your valuable bike unseen for more than a few minutes. (Complete removal of the seat is another theft-impediment since it's not so easy riding off while standing up).
You can buy a Kryptonite fuggetaboutit 1/2 inch chain or make your own for literally a fraction of the price by googling ""campbell" "maxx" or "ultimate" security chain"" and ordering online by the foot. Be advised the 1/2inch, not counting the lock weighs about 2.6lbs/ft and the 3/8th @1.65lbs/ft. I've got a 3ft 3/8th inch chain trading off a little impenetrability for weight since I rarely leave the bike out of sight for long and never in an out of the way place where there's little foot traffic.

The security cable was received promptly, and seems to do the desired job very well. It is long enough to connect several bikes/ wheels or around large posts etc, and the cable just about fits through the slots in my bike helmet so I am also able to lock that up safely.
Very Nice Bike Cable August 30, 2010

I use this in conjunction with a U-Lock when I leave my bike places for extended periods of time. It fits into my bag just fine, and is not heavy enough to notice a difference in weight. It is flexible enough to weave in and out and around pretty much anything. Overall a Very good Cable.
 BUTTERED KRYPTONITE - what's in a name !! August 4, 2010

SAVE YOUR BIKE -- AVOID "KRYPTONITE" LIKE THE PLAGUE !!
Alternatively, if you believe that BUTTER will protect your bike from theft - then definitely buy this.
Buy Kryptonite if you believe that self-deception will protect your bike from theft.
Enjoy a second's worth of protection (but not many milliseconds more). You'll get longer protection - if you walk very,very slowly away from your bike and keep it in line of sight.
