Axa Ringslot – Solid Plus Black – ART 2 Certified

Frequently asked questions

• What does ART2 mean for my bike insurance?

  ART2 is an independent certification that indicates that the lock has been tested for burglary resistance. Many insurers require at least ART2 for bike insurance for more expensive bikes and e-bikes. Check your policy terms for the exact requirements of your insurer.

• Which plug-in cables and chains fit this lock?

  The lock is compatible with the AXA DPI and AXA RLC Plus wire and chain connectors. Please note: not all AXA plug-in products are suitable. If you are unsure which one best suits your situation, our customer service team is happy to help you choose the right combination.

• Is this lock supplied with mounting material?

  No, the Axa Solid Plus ringlock is supplied standard without a screw hole, mounting screws and mounting caps. For installation we recommend using the old screws from the current ringlock. If you do not have these, you can use the screws from the previous ringlock. AXA Flex mount strips required. If in doubt, contact our customer service.

• Does this lock have a fender mounting hole?

  No, the Axa Solid Plus comes standard without a fender mounting hole. Do you have a bike where the lock has to be mounted through the fender? Then we have a special variant that is suitable for this. Please contact our customer service for advice.

• Is this lock suitable for an e-bike?

  Yes, the ART2 certification makes this lock suitable for most bike insurance policies for e-bikes. For more expensive e-bikes over approximately €1,500, insurers sometimes recommend ART3. Always check your policy terms for the exact requirements.

• How do I know if this ring lock fits my bike?

  Measure the distance between your rear fork and the inside of your rear wheel. The opening of this lock is 58 mm wide. Do you have a bike with extra wide tires, such as balloon tires, an e-bike, or a transport bike? Then check whether your tire is narrower than 58 mm. If you’re unsure, contact our customer service with the brand and model of your bike, and we’ll find out for you.
