Why it matters
Double locking
Both ends of the shackle lock into the lock body, preventing rattling while riding and adding extra resistance.

Everything you need to know about the Abus Granit Super Extreme 2500
How the component works, which specifications matter and what to watch for when choosing. From the basics to the details real bike nerds care about.
ShackleHardened 27 mm square parabolic shackle with plastic coating
Construction and locking mechanism affect protection and convenience. Everyday parking also needs a suitable fixed object and compliance with insurance requirements. Do not choose on weight alone; the size must allow secure attachment of frame and, if needed, wheel.
MaterialWolfram carbide compound around shackle/body; hardened steel structural parts
Material affects weight, stiffness, maintenance and use, but construction matters just as much. Do not choose on a carbon or metal label alone. Racers prioritise weight and response; everyday riders durability, protection and upkeep.

Impact protectionABUS Power Cell technology
Moisture and impact protection help daily use, but a protection rating does not make every use safe. Follow cleaning and use instructions; avoid pressure washing unless explicitly allowed.
IncludedTwo keys, ABUS Code Card, USH 2500 holder with coated metal fixing straps
Check which mounts and parts are included and what is needed separately. Secure, correct installation matters more than speed for everyday use. Have safety-critical attachments checked and use the specified tools.
Size230 mm
Dimensions determine practical fit for luggage, accessories or locks. For commuting and transport, measure the actual load and available space; sporting riders should avoid unnecessary bulk. Check clearance while steering and pedalling too.
Made inGermany
Colour and origin are mainly personal preferences; they do not automatically make a part faster or more suitable. Choose the finish matching your bike and maintenance preferences after checking fit and function.
