ABUS BORDO ALARM BIG 120CM LOCK
The ABUS Bordo Alarm Big 6000KA/120 is the ultimate security solution for e-bikes, cargo bikes, and high-end road machines. Building on the legendary Bordo folding design, this "Big" version offers an extended 120cm circumference, providing the critical extra length needed to secure your frame and wheels to thick street furniture or multiple bikes at once.Constructed from 5mm hardened steel bars joined by specialised rivets, it offers high resistance to bolt cutters and saws while remaining flexible enough to pack down into a compact frame-mounted bracket.
The standout feature is the integrated 100dB alarm system powered by 3D Position Detection.This smart sensor monitors movement in three dimensions; it is intelligent enough to distinguish between a minor knock—like a ball hitting the bike—and a determined theft attempt. A minor vibration triggers a short warning "beep," while sustained tampering results in a 20-second siren that automatically re-arms itself. Equipped with the top-tier ABUS XPlus cylinder, this lock offers world-class protection against picking and manipulation, ensuring your bike stays exactly where you left it.

✅ Why This IS For You
The E-Bike Enthusiast: The 120cm reach is essential for navigating the oversized frames and motor housings of modern electric bikes.
High-Risk Parking: You frequently leave your bike in urban areas where an audible alarm acts as a powerful psychological deterrent to thieves.
Multi-Bike Security: Perfect for riders who need to lock two bikes together or secure a bike and a trailer simultaneously.
Tech-Minded Security: You want the physical strength of a folding lock combined with active digital monitoring.
Premium Frame Owners: The extra-soft coating ensures that even with the lock’s weight, your carbon or high-end alloy frame remains scuff-free.
❌ Why This May NOT Be For You
Weight Weenies: At nearly 1.8kg, this is a heavy-duty unit; performance-focused road riders may find the weight excessive for climbing.
Minimalist Setup: The folded package is larger than standard 90cm locks; ensure you have enough room on your frame for the 120cm bracket.
Stealth Requirements: If you park in a shared indoor garage where accidental bumps occur frequently, the warning beeps might annoy neighbours.
BFC PRO TIP
The Bordo Alarm Big features a clever "Transport Mode."When placing the locking bar into the housing, do not push it all the way in before locking it—this allows you to carry the lock on your bike over rough terrain without the alarm being active. Once you’re ready to park, push the bar in completely to engage the sensors. Also, keep your XPlus key code card in a safe place at home; it’s the only way to get replacement keys or order "Keyed Alike" locks for your other bikes!
