Kryptonite Transit U Lock kit,Black,25 mm x 80 mm

Product Information

Above, I’ve covered the best places to put your bike when riding. Some work better than others, so be sure to choose one that suits you best. But to be fair to the manufacturers, it’s actually quite difficult to design a frame mount that will be both compatible with the endless different frame shapes and sizes, and hold a rigid, heavy piece of metal securely as the bike bumps around the streets. Product dimensions: Fits bicycle frame tubing 25mm to 80mm whether round, oval, triangular or square shapes

I also wouldn’t advise this as a permanent solution. If you were to fall off your bike whilst riding with a chain over your shoulder/round your waist, you could sustain injuries from the tough metal links. Even though the Fahgettaboudit uses high-quality corrosion-resistant metals, I’d recommend cleaning & lubricating it every month.The manufacturer, TwoFish, recommends that you use their mounting system on your handlebars as seen above. But for some people a frame mount just isn’t going to work. They may have a strange shaped frame, or there may be no spare space on the frame to attach one. They may not like the aesthetic of a plastic frame mount on their bike!

How well this works will depend on how long the chain is and the set up of your bike. But I’ve used this method successfully in the past. Be careful it doesn’t interfere with your brake cables though, and that if you care about your paint work, it’s not banging against the frame. I once witnessed a woman cyclist sitting down at a bench eating a sandwich. Next to her was a beautiful road bike leaning against the bench. Out of nowhere a man snatched her bike, jumped on the seat, and jet away. But its relatively small dimensions also make it suitable for narrow posts, frames and rear wheels.I was also able to fit the Fahgettaboudit Mini under my belt loop, however this wasn’t hugely comfortable.

If you’re on a tight budget and don’t have the money to afford the Fahgettaboudit Mini or the OnGuard Brute, this is one of your next best options. Its dimensions are intended to make it versatile and compatible with narrow posts, frames and the rear wheel. Some are designed to be worn around the waist like a belt when not in use, making them easy to transport while cycling. This means, no more scratches, no more loud rattling noises and no more uncomfortable bike rides! What’s more, the Huldit retails at a very affordable price.Longer chains can be worn around your shoulders like a bandolier. This is not going to be comfortable for long journeys. It is likely to stain your top. And will be dangerous if you fall on it, if you’re involved in an accident.
