ABUS Trigger Alarm 370 2.0 Yellow

The locking pin diameter indicates the thickness of the pin that passes through the brake disc, measured in millimeters. This size determines compatibility with the openings in the brake disc of the motorcycle or scooter.

Always check the dimensions of your brake disc opening to ensure proper compatibility.

• 5 – 7 mm: Slim locking pins, mainly used on compact disc locks and lighter vehicles such as scooters and smaller motorcycles. Offer wide compatibility, but lower resistance against brute force.
• 8 – 12 mm: Standard locking pins most commonly found on the market. This size offers an excellent balance between compatibility and resistance against forced attacks, fitting most motorcycles.
• 13 – 19 mm: Thick locking pins for maximum robustness within the disc lock category. Provide higher resistance against cutting or forced attacks, provided the brake disc has sufficient clearance.

Conclusion

Choose a locking pin that fits perfectly in your brake disc opening and matches your desired security level.

For disc locks that fit over the brake disc, this measurement is essential to ensure compatibility with the vehicle.

• Importance for installation: If the brake disc is thicker than the stated maximum value, the disc lock cannot be installed or locked properly.
• Vehicle dependent: Brake disc thickness varies depending on the motorcycle, scooter, brand, and model.
• Check compatibility: It is recommended to measure the brake disc in advance to avoid compatibility issues.

Conclusion

Always check your brake disc thickness before choosing a disc lock to ensure correct installation.

Some locks come with a built-in alarm, providing extra deterrence in addition to mechanical protection.

• Yes – The lock has an integrated alarm that triggers when movement or tampering is detected. Ideal for busy or public areas, as it increases visibility and discourages thieves.
• No – The lock provides only mechanical protection. Simple, maintenance-free, and suitable for users who do not need an additional sound alert.

Tip: Alarms are useful if you often park your motorcycle or scooter outdoors or in higher-risk theft areas.

The ART certification is one of the most important standards for chain locks and other locks for two-wheelers such as bicycles, scooters, and motorcycles. The ART Foundation tests and certifies locks for theft resistance: the more stars a lock receives, the higher its security. Below is an overview of the different ART levels and what they mean.

ART 1

• Meaning: Basic protection; guards against simple and quick force.
• Use: Short-term parking in well-monitored or private areas.
• Insurance: Often not recognized by insurers.
• Security: Easily forced with basic tools; minimal protection.

ART 2

• Meaning: Standard protection against limited professional tools.
• Use: Short-term parking in areas with some supervision or locked garages.
• Insurance: Sometimes recognized for basic theft coverage.
• Why: Offers slightly more resistance but still vulnerable to targeted attacks.

ART 3

• Meaning: Enhanced protection against more advanced tools and longer attempts.
• Use: Unmonitored public areas for short to medium parking periods.
• Insurance: Usually recognized by insurers as minimum requirement for motorcycle theft coverage.
• Why: Good balance between usability and security for standard motorcycles.

ART 4

• Meaning: Advanced protection; resistant to professional tools and prolonged attempts.
• Use: Long-term parking in public areas or for valuable motorcycles.
• Insurance: Recognized by most insurers; often required for higher policy values.
• Why: Provides strong resistance against professional tools and significantly delays thieves.

ART 5

• Meaning: Maximum protection; tested against advanced methods and professional tools.
• Use: High-end or expensive motorcycles; maximum security required.
• Insurance: Required by insurers for full coverage of valuable vehicles.
• Security: Offers the highest theft resistance, minimizes risks, and meets strictest insurance requirements.

SRA certification is an official French approval for motorcycle locks. SRA stands for Sécurité et Réparation Automobiles, an independent organization that tests locks for resistance against theft.

A lock with SRA certification has been thoroughly tested against various attack methods such as cutting, sawing, pulling, prying, and cylinder manipulation. Only locks that meet strict standards receive official SRA approval.

• Yes: The lock is SRA-certified and complies with French security standards. This may be required by certain insurers, especially in France.
• No: The lock does not have SRA certification. Check with your insurer whether this is required for your policy.

SRA certification is mainly required by insurers in France but can also serve as an additional quality guarantee in other countries.

This specification indicates the type of two-wheeler the disc lock is primarily suited for, based on size, usability, and security level.

• Bicycle: Disc locks for bicycles are usually lightweight and compact, making them easy to carry. They provide basic protection for short-term parking in urban environments.
• Scooter: For scooters, disc locks with higher resistance are recommended. They are designed for effective protection during daily use and short to medium parking periods.
• Motorcycle: Motorcycle disc locks are more robust and offer higher resistance against manipulation. They are suitable for use in public areas and for longer parking durations.

Note: This specification was added by our product specialists and is not binding. All disc locks can be used on different types of two-wheelers, depending on your preference for portability and security level.

The weight indicates how much the lock weighs according to the manufacturer’s specifications. This is an important factor when choosing between ease of transport and theft protection, especially if the lock is carried regularly while riding.

• Lightweight: lightweight locks are easy to carry and ideal for daily use or short stops. They offer greater convenience, but generally provide a lower level of security than heavier locks.
• Medium weight: these locks offer a good balance between portability and security. They are suitable for use on the road and provide reliable theft protection.
• Heavyweight: heavy locks offer the highest level of theft protection and can withstand more aggressive attack methods. Due to their weight, they are mainly used for home use or fixed parking locations.

A disc lock reminder is a cable that connects the disc lock to the motorcycle’s handlebar. It helps remind the rider that the lock is still attached to the brake disc before riding off.

• Yes: The disc lock comes with a reminder cable (between the lock and the handlebar), to prevent riding off while the lock is still attached.
• No: The disc lock is not supplied with a reminder cable.
