Compact High-Security U-Lock for City Streets
The Kryptonite Evolution Mini-5 U-Lock is a compact, high-security lock designed for serious urban use. Its shorter 3.25" x 5.5" internal dimension reduces space for thieves to work, while still fitting most commuter, city, and road frames when paired with a secure rack or post. The 13 mm hardened MAX-Performance steel shackle is built to resist bolt cutters and leverage attacks in real-world conditions.
A hardened double deadbolt, reinforced crossbar, and high-security disc-style cylinder add layers of protection against twist, pry, and pick attacks. The lock includes three keys (one with an integrated LED) and a frame mount, making it practical to carry every day. For many riders, the Mini-5 is the go-to choice when security matters more than saving a few ounces.
