The Kryptonite New-U Evolution Mini 7 [Amazon] is a pretty well known bike lock, if only because it’s been the Wirecutter's “best bike lock” top pick for the last couple of years.


And I think they made a good choice! Because this is a u-lock that’s not too heavy, is pretty secure, and will provide adequate locking opportunities for most people riding in an urban environment.


However, I’ve seen a lot of complaints from cyclists that say that it’s too small to lock their bikes with.


In some cases, this will undoubtedly be true. But in other cases, I suspect that they’re not aware of the different ways you can use a lock like this to effectively secure your bike.
