Best bike lock: what to look for before you buy
A buying checklist for bike lock, with what eBay buyers actually paid. We do not stock this type, so the advice is not steering you to our own product.
Lock type and where you park matter more than the price. A hardened U-lock is the sensible default, with a cable as a second layer for wheels.
On 2026-11-02, eBay buyers paid a median of $27.80 for bike lock (search "bike lock"), across 4,200 sold listings. It is a market read, not a quote. Jump to the search shortcuts or read the 6 checks first.

What to look for: 6 checks
These are the points that separate a good bike lock from a poor one, in the order they usually matter.
- Typea hardened U-lock resists cutting best. Chains are flexible but heavy. Folding locks pack small. Cables only deter casual theft.
- Shackle thickness13 to 16 mm is typical for a city lock. Thicker costs more and weighs more.
- Sizea smaller U leaves less room for leverage. Make sure it fits round your frame and a post.
- Security ratingslook for a stated rating from a recognised scheme, if any. The rating is a guide to resistance, not a promise.
- Mounta frame bracket carries the lock. Check it fits your frame tubes.
- Keys and cylinderduplicate keys and a registration code help if you lose one.
The mistake to avoid
- A strong lock on a weak post is no use. Lock the frame and rear wheel to something fixed that cannot be lifted off.

median sold price
$27.804,200 sold listings · read 2026-11-02
On 2026-11-02, eBay buyers paid a median of $27.80 for bike lock (search "bike lock"), across 4,200 sold listings. That is real money changing hands on eBay, which makes it a useful anchor when you compare asking prices elsewhere.
How to read it: the count is the sold-result total eBay shows for a search of sold and completed listings, and the median is from the first page of prices (about 60 listings, new and used mixed). It is not an Amazon price, it ignores shipping and condition, and it does not say what a given product is worth. A different spec will sit well above or below it.

Questions
U-lock or chain?
A U-lock is lighter and more cut-resistant for the weight. A chain is more flexible around odd posts.
Should I use two locks?
In high-theft areas, yes. A second lock of a different type slows a thief further.

Are the Amazon links paid?
Yes. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. The links open an Amazon search, not a particular listing, and cost you nothing extra. We have not tested any product, and we show no Amazon prices because we cannot check them.
Nuva Supply does not sell bike lock, so this page carries no commercial interest in the product itself. We do earn a commission on qualifying Amazon purchases made through the search links, and the link labels say so. Nothing here is independent testing.
