Anti-Pinch pin
- 07/04/2020
This is probably the third pin I've ordered, as the two previous pins were inadvertently left on the bike after removal of the lock. They are a brilliant solution and with the addition of a short chain and second pin, two bikes can be linked with one short chain when touring. Also highly recommend the closed shackle squire locks.
Finally I've found Davids advice invaluable, coupled with prompt service and delivery.
Clever, effective bit of kit

Bought one of these after I got a 16mm Pragmasis chain and couldn't get it through the frame... what an ingenious idea. Simple and really secure. With the Squire lock and Beefy Bridge ground anchor surely an unbeatable combo?
Outstanding service and advice from David at Pragmasis as well as rapid delivery.
Wonderful product and service from Pragmasis

Just received the “Super “ anti-pinch pin and I’m well pleased. Together with my 16mm Protector chain my KTM could not be more secure. Brilliant customer service from Pragmasis....thoroughly recommended!
Great product and outstanding customer service

I've been using one of these through the back axle on my bike for years. It's a really convenient way to secure your bike to a ground anchor and with my bike there is no way to get a chain though anything solid on the bike.
Unfortunately some scumbags attacked it with an angle grinder last week. They managed to cut the padlock (which didn't open despite the shackle being cut) and then the pin. They were almost through when disturbed.
No chain or pin is going to defeat an angle grinder so all you can do is make them think twice and slow them down.
I was worried that they'd come back to finish the job but after a call to Pragmasis and getting some advice from Steve, I had a replacement pin (deliberately shorter than the original), a longer pin to go through the chassis with the washer, some more chain and a D-lock within 24 hours.

Steve and his team are brilliant. Customer service is second to none. Everything arrived, well packed the next day. I can't recommend this company highly enough.
Solid

This pin is formidable.Its solid and will need a whole load of noise to cut through. Pairing it with a 19mm chain and a beasty ground anchor will see thieves move on to somehting easier.

I bought the 16mm x 1.0m chain and padlock as a package and added the Panigale 899 special Anti-Pinch Pin for my Ducati Multistrada 950 as the spindle diameter is smaller than the standard 24mm pin. It all fits well and is quick to take on and off. Very pleased with it. The way I have it all installed would be difficult to apply large cutting tools so I'm confident they would look somewhere else.
Anti-Pinch Pin
- 01/04/2017
What a great device. Simple but extremely effective going through wheel and driveshaft and secured by 2 metre long 16mm chain with Squire SS65CS padlock and secured to ground with the Torc Anchor. Excellent delivery time of less than 24 hours from order to receipt.
Multi-use!

Already had a shorter pin and was looking for a disc lock for a Beemer but their brake discs are net standard. Came up with the idea of a slightly longer pin through the brake mount and an a squire padlock. Works a treat. Also has other capability as hand-held bike theft deterrent!!!
serves the purpose perfectly
- 06/05/2015
Bought this together with the 16mm chain and it works perfectly together with the squire Padlock.

I use the 440mm size for my Harley Street Bob and it fits with enough space left on both sides.
Highly recommended!

No more to say

Very impressed!
- 17/06/2015
I've purchased the 440mm pin for use with my FJR1300. The pin arrived within a couple of days of my order which was brilliant and is a reassuringly solid bit of kit.

I already own a competitor's security chain, and ground anchor, so am using the pin to beef up the security and ensure my lovely new bike stays in my possesion.

I'm very impressed with the entire shopping process and the product supplied and would have no hesitation ordering other products from SecurityForBikes.
Col. Mustard in the dining room with the pinch pin
- 24/06/2015
If you have a hollow axle this will do the job superbly, it's a hefty piece of metal. It should be banned as a concealed weapon it's that hefty! I have no doubt that any bike it is used on will have to be either disassembled or cut apart before this lets go. I just wish I could've used it on my bike. A Panigale Special will NOT fit a 2012 Monster 1100 EVO rear axle. It's just a fraction of a mm too big.
Sleep safe

Fantastic bit of kit, now I can sleep soundly knowing that my bike is secured to the ground with the aid of the Anti-Pinch Pin. Great after sales to boot, 100% satisfaction guaranteed :-)
Great Product & Excellent Service
- 12/07/2015
Got the anti-pinch pin to go through a previously installed ground anchor that couldn't cope with a new chain- the anti-pinch pin solved the issue and now my bike is fully protected.
The pin itself is a big old lump of metal and looks a quality machined piece.
Forgot to mention about the super quick delivery.
Very happy & confident about my bikes security. Cheers.
Anti Pinch Pin, 16MM Chain, Padlock
- 16/07/2015
Bought this combo to help secure by VESPA GTS 300 from thieves. My 3rd bike in 3 months. First one with this security combo - I hope it works!
Quality bit of kit
- 28/07/2015
Excellent piece of kit, helps keep my bike secure as it's left outside due to no garage.
Highly recommended
Essential for securing my bike.
- 03/12/2021
Without the pin there is nothing substantial to connect my Blackbird to my chain and anchor leaving the wheels as the only option and the weakest link.
A really simple and elegant solution.
Secure and Safe.

Having recently purchased a VFR800f I decided to upgrade the garage security, and having used Pragmasis in the past for securing my mountain bikes it was a no brainer not to use them again. A 340mm Anti Pinch Pin, 16mm x 1.2m chain with a SS65CS padlock now secures the rear wheel of the bike to a previously purchased Double Doofer ground anchor, with a Dib D-Lock through the front wheel to prevent anyone rolling the bike forward to gain better access to the anchor. The length of the chain allows me to secure the bike even with side panniers fitted and I can still slot the intermediate chain links over the end of the pinch pin to shorten the chain for when the bike is stored without panniers. I purchased the Pinch Pin with the full coating and it still goes through the rear axle without fuss. Positioning the ground anchor between the wall and the bike makes attaching the chain and lock a little awkward, however this will also be a massive headache for anyone trying to attack these items, so all in all a secure solution. Delivery was next day, everything was well packaged. Very happy bunny!
Strong , secure and well made.

This is the second Anti Pinch pin that I have bought and I cannot recommend them enough. Its a really strong and quick way to secure your pride and joy. Slide the pin through the back axle, hang the two ends of your chain (already fed through the anchor)onto the pin and then secure with the Squire padlock. It takes seconds to do is really secure, plus no chance of chipping the alloys.
Anti Pinch Pin for R1200 GSA
- 21/08/2017
I had seen a few reviews on you tube and emailed the guys for some advice on size and fitting etc received a very helpful reply the following day and bought the pin (290mm) 16mm chain (1.5m) and padlock.

All looks very sturdy, great service ordered on Friday morning and arrived the following Monday. Expensive when compared to other chains but we have all seen the you tubes of lesser chains being hand cropped in 1 to 2 mins.

I tried both the recommend ways for fitting with a ground anchor cemented into the garage floor started with feeding the pin through one end link then putting the pin through the wheel (facing left to right) other end link and then padlock doing it this way the 290mm pin was only just long enough to get a link on at each end with the padlock, I then tried feeding the pin through the wheel right to left and putting the two end links on one end with the padlock, this made fitting and access to the padlock much easier, could have probably got away with a slightly shorter chain maybe 1.3/1.4m but the extra length will be useful if I have to leave it chained to something outside.

Put the pin through some pipe lagging to protect the centre part of the rear wheel.
Fits perfectly!
- 24/04/2017
The perfect solution to the problem of fitting a decent chain through the frame of my Ducati Monster 796! The 390 mm pin fits perfectly through the frame in front of the engine casing, and will hopefully act as a serious deterrent for the toe-rags!
So good I don't want to leave her anywhere without one...

I've had an anti-pinch pin with 19mm chain for over a year, after a few thievery issues. The set up means I sleep well at night now, knowing that the thieves who come will be disappointed... Now I've bought a second one to keep at work! Worth every penny.
Anti-pinch pin - simple & low fuss
- 16/02/2016
I'm glad I spotted this, was looking for chain and ground anchor. This meant much shorter chain and is a doddle to use. Ultimately more secure. Definite win. 48 hour delivery of order - nice.
Fantastic Product
- 17/02/2016
The Anti-Pinch Pin is a fantastic product.

It helps me secure my bike through the frame and gives me peace of mind.

Definitely recommended.
Perfect for the job!
- 03/03/2016
I was looking into upgrading the security chain for my Ducati 1299 Panigale but couldn't find anywhere to thread the chain through except the rear wheel. Then I discovered the anti-pinch pin which fits easily through the rear axle and my problem was solved.
It was a good thing I ordered a double set of the anti-pinch pin and the 2.0m 16mm chain though, so I can leave one set at work, because with the weight and bulk of the whole setup you wouldn't want to carry it all in a back-pack each day.
Everything feels very solid and well made.
I had some non-standard aspects to my order and the customer service provided was quick, helpful and very professional.
I can easily recommend Pragmasis and will likely order additional products in the future.
Secure F800GT

With a 16mm chain,recommended padlock,ground anchor and anti pinch pin through the swinging arm/axle I'm happy with the bike's security. I'd think more than twice about tackling them all . Thanks
real security
- 19/04/2016
The pin is a very good fitment through the rear axle and give a solid mounting for the 19mm chain and squire ss65cs lock. The quality and trust in these products is total.
Simple idea, well executed
- 26/04/2016
This is a simple idea that is well produced. It adds more security which will hopefully make the thieves give up and look for another bike. This coupled with a ground anchor, chain and alarm gives me piece of mind.
First Class Service!!!!!
- 15/05/2016
I purchased the Anti Pinch Pin, 19mm Chain & Lock. Fantastic kit, great communication from the point of sale to delivery. I would highly recommend these guys!!
Anti-pinch pin
- 16/05/2016
Absolutely the best idea for anti theft on motorbikes
Originally bought one for my BMW through the spindle, now bought for the KTM as it goes through the frame, can be adjusted with the washer, and takes 2 mins to secure the bike, rather than damaging the bike with heavy chains through (removable) wheels
First class product
