OXFORD’S HEAVY METAL BEAST

The team at Oxford Products are continuing their efforts to beat the bike thieves with a new Diamond Sold Secure rated Beast lock.

The £149.99 lock should be enough to give the most determined thief pause for thought. It has been designed so that the 30mm hardened locking pin resists angle grinder attack, and the ball bearing locking mechanism makes it tough to pick. The Beast weighs a hefty 3.6kg. Equally heavy duty is 12-15kg Beast chain with 22mm links (£149.99-£214.99) Oxford claims it would not be out of place on a ship’s anchor. There is also a new ground anchor (£99.99), while there is also a floor mounted pin to slot the Beast lock straight on to at £89.99. As well as being tested against tools, grinders et al, the locks are also freeze resistant.
