Easily shimmed open with no skill
I bought this for lockpicking practice. The keyway has good warding and tight tolerances, so it is very pick resistant. The particular key on mine have has very good bitting, and in my experience nearly all Abus locks I have used seem to have good bitting somehow.
That said, for what they are marketing as a premium lock, this lock can be shimmed with no skill whatsoever. The shackle holes are not especially tight on these 50mm locks, so I had no real difficulty shimming this, rendering that good core all for naught in terms of real-world security.
The fit and finish on the body is good and the lock operates smoothly. I have little doubt that the shackle is as well hardened, and the large diameter means it will probably resist all but the largest of bolt cutters. That said, that large shackle diameter may also make it too large to fit on many smaller hasps or lockers. The aluminum body and spring loaded locking pawl also make me uncertain how well it would stand up to brute force attacks; I suspect a few solid blows with a hammer would deform or shear the body and get this open. I would only trust this for low security applications.
