 Coolness: 239315 | Your brand new U-Lock is not safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the most absurd thing I've seen in a very long time. As you guys might remember, I recently had the nicest set of wheels I've ever had stolen from me. Today I was hanging out with a friend and we got to talking about that - he said his friend showed him just recently how to open a U-Lock with a ball point pen. Of course I didn't believe it. That is until just thirty seconds ago when I opened my own Kryptonite Evolution 2000 with a bic ball point pen! This has to be the most absurd thing I've ever seen. Try it. Take the end off the pen, jam it in the lock, wiggle around and twist. Please tell everyone you know and make sure they do something about it right away. The theives probably already know this trick but from what I've heard it's fairly new. I figure the information is going to get out anyway and so it's better to let the honest people know first and hope this problem gets fixed. You've got to be kidding me - most people consider these the standard for locking up. And it's a BALL POINT PEN that can break them open!? WTF. I will be on the phone with Krypto first thing tomorrow morning. [edit] Movie #1: [ thirdrate.com ] Movie #2: [ biginjapan.com ] Movie #3: [ biginjapan.com ] Movie #4: [ www.engadget.com ] Movie #5: [ gallery.iamjp.com ] Spread the word, link to this thread! [ www.bikeforums.net ] Please note, testing this on your own lock may break or jam your lock! Please read the whole thread, and only try this on your lock if you can afford to replace it! as taken from [ www.bikeforums.net ] I watched six different locks opened with a freaking funking pen...this is no joke!!!!! For those that use this info for no good....don't let me CATCH YOU....i am a nice guy..but just all things in life i have a dark side!!!! Lee |

| Coolness: 239315 | I picked up a lock from this company.. [ www.onguardlocks.com ]
And it only cost me $34 for a lock where I will not find my bike missing. Do not get a Kryto…way over priced!!!! Lee |
