Abus' website says they can sell keyed alike locks. Has anyone figured out where I can order these in the US, or do I need to go to Europe? I want three of them (Amazon sells two packs).

What do people think of the Bordo link type locks?

If you're planning on getting cheapest most lightweight version of the folding lock I would take a closer look. I watched a video last year where a man disassembled one that appeared to be constructed of solid flat plates but it was just a thin wire around the outside of each "plate" with plastic filler in the middle.

I was thinking about the Abus 6000, which hopefully is better made because they are nearly $100 ea.

Is there any lock that can't be defeated in 5 minutes by an industrious thief?
