Master Lock Smart Bracket Universal U-Lock and Cable Lock Review - Video

Master Lock Smart Bracket Universal U-Lock and Cable Lock Review

Today we are going to show you part number 8351D from Master Lock. This is their Smart Bracket Universal U-Lock and Cable Lock carrier bracket. One bracket comes with each of these, and it is fairly simple onto install onto a bike. You simply just put it on the frame, you slide your lock in through the mechanism there, and we will show you how all that is done momentarily. But first we are going to show you how this actually operates. Now, as you can see here, the brackets go in through the back here. You can see, this is where you tighten them up with a flathead screwdriver, like so. Righty tighty, lefty loosey. After you remove this from the bracket itself, this is what you will be fitting the locking mechanism through. Like this, it operates with flathead screws, which allow you to open it as wide as you need to for whatever you need to. Now, just on a quick note here, it comes with two of these top parts here, one for 12-mm diameter and smaller or the larger 13-mm diameter and larger. But for our purposes today we will only be needing the 12. We are just going to attach a common bike lock. I will show you how it works. more
