Hiplok Founders, John Abrahams and Ben Smith, have long been waging war against bike thieves and their angle-grinders. However, their latest innovative lock – the patent-pending Hiplok D1000 anti-angle grinder lock is undeniably game changing. Achieving the ultimate Sold Secure Diamond rating for both bicycles and motorcycles, this lock stands well apart from the competition. It is unquestionably hailed as the first lock of its kind.

 

Specifically described as “the most effective portable security device I’ve ever seen” by John Milbank, consumer editor of motorcycle website Bennetts BikeSocial, this lock’s ability to surpass the 90 second sustained angle grinder attack for the Diamond rating to be described as unbreakable is truly impressive.

 

So how does it do it? Specifically the D1000 contains a high-performing, specialist composite material, which effectively disintegrates angle-grinder cutting wheels and drills, resulting in its remarkable anti-cut properties. However, don’t be misled, this is a real-world lock – offering maximum security whilst weighing in at a highly portable and usable 1.9kg, comparable to many D and U-locks on the market.

 

“The D1000 lives up to everything Hiplok promises and more” according to Gear Junkie’s resident lock tester.
