Spec me a mid priced lock

BostonB

My commuter hack, isn't worth much and is locked in a low risk car park at work. My current u lock and cable, could probably be cut or opened with a spoon, and I think the lock is sticking. So was thinking of getting something better. As a mid priced lock/cable combo, I was thinking of getting Kryptonite Evolution™ Mini and some sort of long cable, to go through front wheel, frame and back the U lock on the rear triangle. Bike rack is on the ground and its awkward to access. Hence the cable. Whats a good deal at or under €50? Something like this? Cables too short, though.

For a hack bike I'd use a security skewer rather than a cable for the front wheel. Unless it's got discs.

I bought 2 Kryptonite New York locks a while ago from Halfords. There was an offer where I got 2 for €100. If you're near Dublin City centre you can have the spare one for €50. I've been meaning to post it up for sale but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Hi Velo

If that lock is available to all I'll take it off your hands for €50 if it's new. I'm Getting a bit concerned about the number of bike thefts at the minute. Contact number sent.

Well I'd definitely take the lock if available.

Velo Bro nice intercept there....:)

Lumen - thought of the security skewer, still need a cable to reach the bike rack though. Might be a little quicker though. Some put a U lock though the rear triangle, but have to balance the bike against the rack to achieve that.

Are their different skewers for different bikes. This is a 90's MTB.

I use a Specilized Wedlock, never had any problem's and have being using it for years, then again I'm very fussy where I leave my bike.
I combine it with Kryptonite cable to keep the wheels safe.
