Looks like it was the fahgettaboutit lock, but same thing https://youtu.be/jXoS_HB1I3o
PS, get the chain versions and not the ulock if possible, in test videos I watched it seemed like the chain versions were much more annoying for the angle grinder user. Look at how long it takes this guy, and in reality the chain isn't going to be on a nice platform like that https://youtu.be/uZdCNRcSkCk
Lockpicking lawyer's hydrolic bolt cutter exploded on it.
Angle grinders will cut through anything, but they're loud, and if you have a lock that takes more than 30 seconds to grind or 1 grinder disk, well why would the thief bother vs one of the easier targets?
Also tape an airtag somewhere on the bike.
This is the one I'm talking about, $75
Kryptonite Evolution 1055 Mini 10mm Chain Bicycle Lock , Black https://a.co/d/0xjPXNw
If your bike is worth over $300 then imo it's worth it, now that every douchebag has a mini bolt cutter in their backpack (around here)
It's two months later and I've done a 180 on this opinion and went from "fuck gas cars" to "fuck all cars".
The car infrastructure is the shitty part, not so much the cars
That's the one!
If you already have a good pedestrian vehicle: a good bike lock.
I (and lockpicking lawyer) recommend the kryptonite evolution. Good balance of price and protection.
For a step up I recommend the kryptonite fahgettaboutit.
Either way, bolt cutters aren't getting in, and portable angle grinders will take a little while because the chain is annoying to grind.
I see too many expensive bikes chained up with thin little locks.
I was gonna say this.
$100 on craigslist or a local bike refurbishing place (where I got mine) will get you something that will last for years.
Throw in a $15 bike lock, a cheap returned helmet, and a $5 rear bike light and you're set for life.
I got one for $40 that's 1080p, and the "high endurance" sd card I got for $15 is still going 4 years later.
Don't overthink it. You don't need something fancy.
I bought a bunch of mechanical keyboards. I had "the mech fever". Several hundreds of dollars.
I bought a microsoft ergo keyboard on a whim 3 years ago and never looked back. It's perfect. I can type faster and have zero discomfort. I can't think of how it could be improved.
$60
I recommend the xaiomi one on amazon. Works great
Liftoff dunks on memmy, it lets you browse the full fediverse and reply using several accounts (in case your main one isn't federated with an instance you're viewing)
Memmy was cool but liftoff is my new jam
Carpet tape too, which can stick anything to anything and also not leave a residue.
And reusable zip ties. I would die without those
