The cable is just long enough to take the strain off the plug of whatever you are plugging into. The locking system is only going to slow someone down but it is a locking system. They fell right off and you cannot adjust them. Its perfect for my other shoes. Works good with iPhone 11. Mute button for the mic is easy to access for the rage moments. I love all the details of the outside of them as well, such a classic look! If you love hip-hop this is like a giant christmas present on a disc. I am really happy with these shelves, as you can see in the photo I do have a lot of stuff, but this makes retrieving my dish ware so much easier! Fits my scott mtb right where pictures shows it mounted.
