Re: [RBW] Locks

2016-10-22 Thread Patrick Kelly
The one, the best, the u-lock that I most highly recommend is the Abus
Granit Futura 64, aka U-Lock 64/120HB150

It’s small, it’s light, it’s extra hardened. It’s rated by the manufacturer
as more secure that some of their other (heavier) u-locks.

Advantages/features of this lock:

   - small & light
   - locks both sides of the U rather than just one end
   - keyhole covered, keeps out crud
   - stronger/harder steel than other, heavier locks

Disadvantages/drawbacks:

   - no good bicycle mounting option
   - sometimes too small
   - not as secure as top-end u-locks
   - more expensive than less-good locks

The manufacturer rating is different from ART and Sold secure. Those two are 
independent testing agencies that rate locks in a more objective way under real 
world conditions.

The mfr rates it at "4". Does this mean it is more secure than the Tigr at
"2"?

Does that same organization do all the ratings?

And, what exactly do the numbers mean?

Does anyone know?

If indeed "4" is better than "2" in a way material to bike safety, this
puck looks like a very good product at a very good price.

I really like the Abus lock you referenced. It has a sturdy but lightweight 
holster that mounts to water bottle cage braze-ons.  I put mine under the down 
tube on my Bombadil and Atlantis, and I don't even notice it's there until I 
need it.

Re: [RBW] Locks

2016-10-21 Thread Reed Kennedy
For quick stops where I won't be far from the bike I use what I call my
"touring lock", a Palmy aluminum u-lock:
https://www.amazon.com/Palmy-Mini-Aluminium-U-lock-Black/dp/B003VLIWGE

It is light, cheap, and provides the appearance that you bike is locked
with a u-lock. (They sell them in many fun colors. I recommend the black
one I linked above, because looking like a real u-lock is half the game
here.)

To be sure, it provides relatively little actual security. I haven't tried,
but I suspect you could likely defeat it by just banging on it with a rock
a bunch and then pulling hard.

But since it does such a convincing impression of actual security folks
tend to leave it alone for at least long enough for me to run in to a shop
or have lunch.

Hi John,

For what you describe, the most practical lock I've seen and own, is the
Kryptonite Evolution Lite Mini-6 U-Lock. I actually carry mine hooked
through the leather loops between the saddle and the bag resting on top
rear of the bag, not inside the bag. It also fits inside the small

[RBW] Locks

2016-10-21 Thread Surlyprof
Since Leah brought up the issue of security here's a question that has been 
nagging at me.  Is there a decent lock that's smaller and lighter than a 
standard Ulock and would fit easily into a Keven's bag?  For weekday 
commuting the Hillborne is loaded down with heavy 36hole A719 wheels, a 
Wald basket, Shopsack, med saddlesack, sturdy Ulock, computer bag, etc.  On 
the weekends and summers, I like to lighten things up.  I switch out the 
wheels for 32 hole Synergys with Barlow Pass ELs, lose the Wald and 
Shopsack, swap the med saddlesack for a Keven's bag and head out for fun, 
light rides without the baggage of my daily commute.  However, in case I 
need to stop anywhere, I still strap the heavy Ulock on the rear rack. 
 Does anyone have a suggestion for smaller, lightweight lock solutions for 
quick stops?  Riv is carrying a lock I may purchase that is about 1/2 the 
weight of my Ulock but they say it is a tight fit in a Keven's bag 
(http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/lk10.htm).  Another alternative is this 
Abus folding lock but, for the price, it doesn't seem to buy me much weight 
loss from my Kryptonite Evolution 
(https://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Security/Bike-Safety-and-Security/Locks/Folding-locks/Bordo-GRANIT-X-Plus-6500).
