There are several types of bike locks, including U-locks, cerraduras de cadena, and so on. Let’s first distinguish them based on their meanings.
Cerradura de cadena: A chain lock consists of a series of metal links chained, along with a lock head. It provides good flexibility and convenience to irregularly shaped objects.
U-Lock: Named for its U-shaped design, the U-lock is typically made of hardened steel and is difficult to break, making it suitable for use in high-risk materials.
