ID is approx 15mm but I think could be made to fit up to 25mm due to the flex in the cable. Fits Kryptonite NewYork ~14mm prongs fine.

a teardrop shaped 5inches - one and a quarter inch at its widest but sliiightly plyable. i can (with a little persuasion due to rubber grips against the rubberised coating of the cable) get it over the end of the handlebar which is about 3inch in diameter.. and that's without altering the teardrop shape of the loop.

I use it with one of these ABU378012KS2 - an ABUS also, but dont know how it compares to yours. It has 12mm diameter hexagonal links. The loops are a tight push, so don't think you can push them to the centre of the chain. I put mine over the first link and lock up. Hope this helps

answer 5
the loops are tear - shaped, and internal measurement is 30mm narrow, 60 mm longer end. You could squish the loop to get something like 32-33mm through it...

answer 6
The loop is pear shaped with a maximum width of 3cm and length 6cm. Because of the cable the loop shape is pretty stiff, but there is a little flex.

Cannot guarantee, but from the picture it looks like they would.

Can't give a specific answer, but the ends of the O Flex would need to be huge, bigger than anything I've seen, not to fit through the hoops.

The loops are large enough to fit over most locks including the Abus Granit Steel O Flex 1000

No it's unrated.

It would not meet the sold secure standards alone, so is unrated. These cables are a great additional security device for securing removable accessories such as QR wheels / forks / seats.

To be effective they should be used in conjunction with a decent approved chain lock or U - lock. I would not use these cables alone to anchor or secure my bike to an immovable object. I would use a Sold Secure approved Lock. A criminal with a decent pair of bolt cutters could cut these cables in a short period of time. Don't rely upon them alone to safeguard your pride and joy.
