Mr. Air Max 90 Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 I've bought a BMX whilst at uni, just to get from campus to campus. I've been leaving it unattended for a week now but I'd hate to see a bill go down the drain. What are the good locks? I'm talking ones where I don't have to come back and see my wheels gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Air Max 90 Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 That's some industrial sh*t! Will it secure the wheels as well though? It looks like it'll only lock the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd need an extension cable to lock through the wheels as well, only problem with those is that they're thin and can be cut pretty easily. / Not everyone has a 10 grand fixie needing a 50 quid lock white boy Step your bike game up then black boy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lemons Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Best lock on road bought this bout 2 years ago, too heavy to carry around It's cool if it's back-back-back in the backpack, but if you don't have a bag then yeah, it's an issue.

manuel Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 I've been leaving it unattended for a week now but I'd hate to see a bill go down the drain wow. Saying that I used to leave mine outside the shop when I went in when I was younger. I dont know if I was stupid or what but now I wont leave it anywhere if Im not chaining it to a lamp post even if Im only going to be gone 20 seconds. Not once in my life have I seen someone steal BMX wheels tho. Meaning they'll have to sit down with a spanner and undo the bolts. Unless you have quick release dont bother chaining your wheels up. Think I got mine from Aldi. £5. does the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
