I remember "Dubber" saying something like: The advice I'm after is what kind of lock(s) would be best for me ? Only one make successfully resists attack for very long - Almax. All the others are ****. Crikey, you're right - look at the videos on www.almax-security-chains.co.uk/index.asp?pg=19 £150 Abus Thatcham Approved blah blah Chain, cropped with simple bolt-cutters in 25 seconds. WTF is that all about? Granted he used a big FO pair of croppers, but surely the video is meant to demonstrate that the product survives for a minimum 5 mins? Anywho, an angle grinder would have taken that out in half the time. I removed the wire rope type lock from an adandoned bike in around 3 seconds with my trusty angle grinder a few weeks ago. I so don't think so The links are thicker than dennis Don't forget, one doesn't usually park a bike close to a mains socket, an Almax chain would tell a battery angle grinder to **** off and play elsewhere It didn't tell those bolt croppers to **** off did it? -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |
