Thank you, I have recently been looking for information about this topic for a long time and yours is the greatest I’ve came upon so far. But, what concerning the bottom line? Are you certain about the source?|What i do not realize is actually how you’re now not really much more smartly-favored than you might be right now. You’re so intelligent.

Many people think that two medium locks of different sorts are better than 1 maxi security on the basis that your average thief goes equipped for a particular opportunity (e.g. either a D lock or cable) and that a bike protected with both is just too much of a faff.

Andreas have you heard of this new revolutionary lock?

Not sure whether it has been released yet but it’s made of titanium and sounds like it means business totally take over the bike lock market.

Maybe worth making contact to perhaps review one for the website?

Yep, think this effected a small number of locks. Don’t think the trick still works but I’m willing to be proven wrong if anyone has managed it recently?

I recently saw a number of videos on YouTube showing Kryptonite locks opened with a pen

This seems to be a bit of a worry

Sorry, Oxford is not a decent lock brand, so I’m not surprise they broke it.

You need to go for premium brands like Abus, or maybe Kryptonite, with at least a Silver or Gold rating from Sold Secure; definitely Gold for high risk areas e.g. London.

I personally prefer Abus because their locks and keys seem better engineered.
