It's a very good advertisement for the bike lock, though.


Interesting question: should the BBC (who are supposed to carry
no adverts) have (as they did) edited the brand out of the
picture in the news article?


I don't know about "should", but I'm glad they did. It could easily have
been a publicity stunt.
