Ignoring the thumbnail, the content creator provides an excellent thorough testing and breakdown of all bike locks and demonstrates the pros and cons of each.

TL;DW:

  • the Kryptonite Diamond Standard came out on top of all tests/charts.

Edit:

  • added specific Kryptonite lock name

Yeah, if someone truly wants your bike, they can get it. Locking a bike somewhere in a city is about making the would-be thief look for an easier target. Outrunning your hiking partner, not the bear.

    I've had five bikes stolen. I've got an Kryptonite NYC mini which has done me well since. But my bike at the moment is shit looking, it's kinda just shit. I put all the nice parts from my busted carbon fibre racer onto an old apollo frame.

    But totally, outrun the bear. Plus don't leave it locked anywhere outside overnight. In Melbourne that a guaranteed theft these days.
