Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Yarnit 4004C keyless?
Yes — the Yarnit 4004C uses a user-set combination mechanism so you don't need to carry a key. The combination can be reset by following the manufacturer's instructions included with the lock.
Will the yarn sleeve protect my bike's paint?
The soft textile sleeve prevents direct metal-to-paint contact and reduces abrasion and chips while locking and transporting. The sleeve also cuts down on clanking noise when the chain moves.
Is 24mm thick enough for high-theft areas?
A 24mm chain offers solid resistance to casual thieves and is a strong deterrent for urban parking and short-term stops. For long-term parking in high-risk locations, consider supplementing with a secondary lock or choosing a higher-rated, heavier chain or D-lock.
Can I secure both wheel and frame with the 110cm length?
Yes — the 110cm (43.3") length is designed to loop through the frame and rear wheel and still reach many street posts and bike racks, making it practical for securing both in one pass.
Are replacement sleeves or parts available?
Replacement sleeves or specific spare parts depend on local Abus service policies. Contact Abus support or your Scenders customer service for guidance on spare parts and warranty options.
How should I carry the chain on my bike?
Carry options include stashing the chain in a pannier or saddlebag, attaching it to a rack or mounting it with a third-party strap or holster. Choose a method that keeps the chain secure and prevents rubbing against paint.
Buying Guide
When choosing a chain lock, balance length, thickness and portability. Longer chains (110cm+) give you more flexibility to secure both wheels and the frame, while thicker links (20mm+) increase resistance to cut tools. Consider whether you prefer keyless convenience (combination) or keyed cylinders for different security profiles. Match the lock to your parking habits: short urban stops usually require less heavy-duty protection than unattended overnight storage. Pair a Yarnit-style chain with a smaller U-lock or secure anchor for layered security where theft risk is high.
