It is the only lock in this guide to be awarded Sold Secure's diamond rating – the highest the testing and certification service offers. The protection this lock offers is staggering given it retails at less than £50 (although only just). We even found the supposed drawback – that it is a smaller D-lock – to have benefits on the usability front, making it easy to operate and store on the bike. There really is little to fault on the OnGuard Pitbull Mini DT.

If you still need guidance, we have included a Q&A on how to choose the best budget bike lock for you at the end of the article. This test doesn't include trying to break the locks open, as we have relied on the certification of qualified testing organisations. We have tested all the locks in real-life scenarios, taking them out to see how practical they are while being transported and when locking up a bike up in various scenarios. We have included a variety of options to suit the different needs of different riders. Similarly, some companies have 'key safe' schemes that make it easier to order replacement keys, or combination lock registration services in case you forget your code. Some locks come with an anti-theft guarantee, which means the company will pay out up to a stated amount if your bike is stolen because the lock was broken or opened by force – although they are often subject to many conditions and restrictions, such as being locked up correctly or the policy not being valid if torches or power tools are used.
