Abus Chain Lock 6806K/85 Reflective (Square Chain)

ABUS Catena 6806K/85 Reflective is a bicycle chain lock with an 85 cm square-link chain, designed for everyday bicycle security and convenient attachment to fixed objects. Its reflective textile sleeve improves visibility in low-light conditions while helping protect the bicycle frame against scratches.

Key Features

Construction and Design

The lock uses 6 mm square chain links made from specially hardened steel. This construction provides resistance against mechanical attacks while remaining flexible enough to secure the bicycle to racks, railings and other suitable fixed objects.

The chain is covered by a textile sleeve with reflective details. It reduces direct contact between the metal chain and the bicycle frame while making the lock more visible in darker conditions.

Main Functions

The lock is operated with a key and features a quality cylinder designed to resist manipulation and drilling. The reversible key can be inserted in either direction, making the lock easier to open during everyday use.

The 85 cm chain length provides sufficient reach to secure the bicycle frame to a stable object. Its flexible construction also adapts more easily to different attachment points and bicycle frame shapes.

Use and Compatibility

The ABUS Catena 6806K/85 Reflective is suitable for urban, hybrid, touring, gravel and other everyday bicycles. It is intended for short or medium-duration parking in locations where the risk of theft is not especially high.

When not in use, the lock can be coiled and carried in a bicycle bag, backpack or around a suitable section of the frame or seat post. Its compact flexible construction requires relatively little storage space.

Additional Features

Specially hardened steel is used for the chain links and important parts of the locking mechanism. A protective plastic coating around the lock body helps prevent scratches and provides a more comfortable surface when handling the lock.

The reflective chain sleeve increases the passive visibility of the bicycle and rider in darker conditions. This feature does not replace bicycle lights or standard reflectors but provides an additional visible element.

Summary

The ABUS Catena 6806K/85 Reflective is intended for cyclists who need a flexible, easy-to-carry chain lock for everyday use. Its 6 mm hardened steel chain, convenient key cylinder, 85 cm length and reflective protective sleeve provide practical bicycle security for urban journeys.
