Product Information
Full details
The Abus 5955 Pro Shield Xplus is designed for urban cyclists who require a quick, convenient security solution for short stops and medium-risk environments. Its primary benefit is the seamless integration with existing bike frames and the ability to easily add extra security accessories, though users should note that it is intended as a supplementary locking device rather than a complete standalone anti-theft solution for long-term parking.

FAQs
Can I use this lock without a chain?
Yes, it functions perfectly as a standalone rear-wheel lock, but it will only immobilize the wheel.
Is the Abus 5955 weather-resistant?
Yes, the hardened steel components and housing are designed to resist rust and standard weather exposure.
What should I do if I lose my keys?
The XPlus cylinder includes a key card with a unique code. You can use this code to order replacement keys directly through Abus or an authorized dealer.
Does this lock fit all bicycles?
It fits most frames with integrated mounting points on the seat stays, but you should verify your frame geometry before purchase.
How heavy is the 5955 Pro Shield?
It is built with hardened steel, which balances durability and weight, though it is intended to remain permanently mounted on the frame.
Troubleshooting
Key is difficult to insert or turn
Clean the cylinder with a dry cloth and apply a small amount of dedicated lock cylinder spray or dry lubricant.
Lock lever is stiff or fails to engage
Ensure the shackle is perfectly aligned with the locking hole and check that no debris is trapped in the frame housing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires that your bicycle frame has the appropriate mounting points, typically located on the seat stays. The lock is attached using the factory-provided holes. Once installed, the lock is virtually maintenance-free due to its robust design. To ensure smooth operation of the XPlus cylinder, it is recommended to apply a dry silicone-based lubricant once or twice a year, especially if you ride in rain or snowy conditions. Avoid using heavy oils or greases which can attract dirt and debris into the locking mechanism.
