Anyone used them?
Looking at their site they seem pretty decent.

Been looking at getting one of these for work:

Had a couple (16mm) chains from them for about 3 years now, holding up well, cover a bit mucky and starting to get a hole or two, but otherwise good. Everyone seems to report they are on par with Almax. Also got one of their Torc ground anchors. Again holding up well after 3 years, just a little paint chipped. Pragmasis themselves were also really helpful when it came to installation of it too.

The Squire locks have been find, but I have had to get new keys cuts for the first as the original bent/wore making it tough to unlock. Again Pragmasis helpfully spotted I had ordered the wrong key blanks from them based on my past orders, corrected the order and refund the difference!

An old review on my blog:
https://www.beginnerbiker.com/2013/09/pragmasis-chain-squire-lock-review/

Overall, they get my thumbs up and I'd happily buy from again.

Pretty much the same as almax. Ideal unless you need to carry it anywhere.

Anti pinch pin is a genius idea.

As as their noose chains, it's just a shame that they only do them up to 13mm.

I have one with a pinch pin made for the VFR, slots through the rear hub. Can't say if it's good or not, no-one has tried to cut through it yet. When they have, I'll report back.

Not sure why you'd imply Almax was better unless you've some kind of empirical evidence to throw down?

The general consensus of most internet experts is Pragmasis and Almax are a case of six and two threes.

I went with Pragmasis about a year ago myself, some dickheads had a go at it with what I assume was bolt cutters. Rolling Eyes
Made small uniform scratches on both sides of a couple of links before they fucked off, I consider it money well spent.
