Why you'll love it: The Wrapsafe from Pacsafe is small enough to use on lockers or luggage, but the included cable can secure roof racks, bicycles, and other large objects.
Sometimes I find myself riding to work with three locks: a D lock for my bike, a cable lock for my bike wheels, and a small padlock for my locker. It's not convenient, which is why I turned to the Pacsafe Wrapsafe. It's versatile and affordable, yet it won't weigh me down, which makes it ideal for traveling.
The Wrapsafe combines a long braided cable with a small padlock. With the cable, you can carry one padlock and secure everything from the smallest locker with tiny eyelets that can't accommodate thicker padlocks, to big items like bicycles, luggage, or sporting equipment.
One Amazon buyer used it to "keep the honest, honest" when locking up a kayak at a campsite, while another used the Wrapsafe at a hostel to secure luggage and lock a window. Granted, the small cable would be no match for a decent pair of bolt cutters, but it's a good theft deterrent.
While this lock is versatile, I wouldn't recommend using it for certain situations. For example, if you're locking a bicycle you plan to leave unattended far away and for some time, a pair of pricey skis, or anything that's valuable or necessity, this isn't the lock for you; there are other locks on this list that are better suited.
Otherwiset, the Wrapsafe is a great option to throw inside a backpack and for securing a bike during short rides or leaving a bag at a hostel.
Pros: Can be used for almost any locking application, portable, cable fits small eyelets
Cons: Not the most secure option for certain things, not TSA recognized
