Squire Straplok 35/850 wearable bike lock review: lightweight, comfortable, and so simple to use

Brilliant wearable adapter means you can secure the lock firmly in place .

Wearable locks are designed to eliminate the need for a pannier or backpack, so whether you're commuting or popping to a local watering hole, you can travel without the additional weight of a traditional chain or U-lock in your bag.

Squire makes all its locks in the UK and is one of the few brands, alongside Litelok and Abus, that offers wearable options. I am reviewing the Straplok 35/850 wearable model, but it also offers the Chainlok 10, which uses the same wearable adapter and lock barrel but gets a much higher Diamond Sold Secure rating.
