Kriega Steelcore Security Strap - 4.5ft

Can't speak for the security aspect and hope I'll never have to but seems robust, lock looks good and it has secured my roll bag on my bike throughout my trip to Spain. Only giving it a good score as I wish there were multiple steel core lanes within the strap.

Excellent piece of kit. Fit for purpose. Good quality.

Essential if you want to be able to secure your OS bags. They are pricey as they are sold as singles however they work really well. The only reason they dropped a star is one of the first ones I had fell apart the first time I tried to use it, however it was quickly swapped by Sportsbikeshop. Must have been a one off as the replacement and the other original one are solid.

Haven't used them yet but they appear to be of good quality. Bought the orange ones as they are easily seen on the bike and would, hopefully, make the bike more visible to other road users.
Usual top class service from SBS.

I don't doubt it's a good deterrent, but it's cumbersome and awkward to use and doesn't sit well on the pannier. Apart from this it's fine!

Excellent addition to my kit to secure soft panniers while on tour. Highly recommend.

Using this with my LoneRider Overlander and it works very well as expected. Good strong lock and easy to use,

A policeman once told me that padlocks only keep innocent people out. That said, these are a great deterrent if your leaving your bike to pay for fuel or get a coffee. I place the locking mechanism behind the pannier, between the bike and pannier thus making it very difficult to force the lock.
I'm happy with them.

The good points...bought the orange for the deterrence value, the straps are very robust, won't damage/abrade the soft luggage like a wire one would, price was ok. The less good...the actual lock mechanism is not that robust and its very difficult to actually close the lock in place over the strap. This may get easier over time as the strap softens. However I would not trust that a screwdriver would not open the lock which feels like the weak point and the keys for both the straps bought are exactly the same. It turns out this is pretty convenient but it was disconcerting to realise Kriega only have 20 different keys/locks for all these straps. The name Kriega isn't on the box anywhere but it is the same as the picture so I am sure it is correct. If after use I have further comment I will update this review.

Bought to fit around some soft luggage I recently purchased. They're pretty long so there's an excess of strap to tie up somehow. I found them a bit fiddly to put on at first but once you've the knack they're fine.
Gives the confidence to leave the bike unattended with luggage left on. Hopefully they'll never be put to the test.
I've deducted a star because it's not easy getting the key into the lock!

Great bit of kit

Used these straps on a recent short trip and they held up well.

Good enough quality for keeping your items secure ;)

I have some doubts about teh lock mechanism - that could be pried open by a very determined thief.....but that said, I use it to lock my helmet to my bike and it seems to work pretty well. I wouldn't use it to lock something when the bike is out of sight overnight, but for going to the shops or securing my kriega bag when i'm in a petrol station it works just fine. Quite long, easily stored.Worth the money I reckon

I use this to strap my helmet to my bike through the face opening! It feels and looks secure.

Fits nicely around my Kriega soft panniers and frame. Textile panniers are never going to be to secure anyway but it is another deterrent. Great quality plus extra grip onto the frame.
