I know it sounds silly, but I just saw this on another site:

Just a heads up to all you bike riders out there.

Kev I was think of posting this, but was like, nahhhh.... but I read about it and its quite amazing in that this lock is THE Lock. Its not like it's 'just another brand'; it's The One. The Standard. The iPod of bike locks; there are other brands out there, but...


The one everyone who has the real expensive bikes trusts.

Why do I have the feeling about a bazillion bikes are gonna get stolen today?

WoW.. I got the same feeling just now when I found out and actually saw how the famous "Club" was so easy to break by auto thieves...

Wow, that's unbelievable. Good thing I didn't waste $50 on one of those.

JPMNick,

I just emailed my friend who goes to France to see Lance [hey, that rhymed], and rides about 250 miles a week; and he confirms it can be done with any of these Kryptonite locks. The demo video guy obviously has it down pat, but with a little practice...

When the NY Subways changed the Token, didnt they find some italian penny or some rediculously low value coin that worked exactly the same?

Thanks Mizzle -

with all the crap put out on the internet, I am very wary of what i see. you never know if this guy is a disgruntled ex-employee or just some nut.

people will do anything to get famous, but it is interesting that the BIC solution actually works.

I mentioned this to some attendees at the last Lilith Fair, and got slapped several times.
