AXA SL7/SL9 plug-in cable

AXA's SL7 and SL9 locks were a very solid design and fitted to many Dutch bicycles between 1992 and 2007. Unfortunately, it was then discovered that while the locks were otherwise very solid, they could be opened using a technique with a blank key. For this reason, the SL7 and SL9 locks are no longer considered to be safe and have been replaced by the AXA Defender, a new design of lock which does not share the same weakness.

We still get a lot of requests for plug-in cables to fit the SL7 and SL9, and if you really want one, we can get it for you. However, we recommend that customers instead replace their existing lock with an AXA Defender lock and then use one of the many cables and chains available to fit to the new lock. Note that the size of the plug in pin on the Defender is not the same as that on the SL7/9 and therefore the cables and chains are not compatible between models.

This cable comes with a bracket to mount the cable on your bicycle frame.
