3. Opsætning og brug
The AXA Linq 180 chain lock offers two primary methods for securing your bicycle:
Method 1: Standard Securing
Place the chain around a fixed object (e.g., a pole or bike rack) and your bicycle frame. Bring both ends of the chain together and secure them directly into the lock body. Ensure the chain is taut to minimize slack.
Method 2: Loop Securing for Maximum Length
Pass one end of the chain through the eyelet of the other end, creating a loop. Then, secure the single end of the chain into the lock body. This method allows you to utilize the maximum chain length while only handling one chain end, effectively reducing the perceived weight during handling.

Always ensure the lock is properly engaged and the key is removed after locking. The polyester sleeve on the chain helps prevent scratches to your bicycle's paintwork.
