Hi Chainlinkers,I fabricated a bike chain about a month ago for my 29" mountain bike because my Ulock wouldn't fit it, I already had a padlock, and I didn't want to dish out the money for one of…Continue

Manny FU...Really!? replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"You could simply go through the frame, right above the pedals (sorry, I don't know what that area is called) before going to the front/rear tire.
Just a thought.

Jack Cebe replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"Yes, I imagine it would probably take at least a 36" pair of bolt cutters or an abrasive wheel to cut this stuff, and either of those can get through about anything on the market. The thing that I've liked about it over the brand…"
Bill Savage replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"I've used a Kryptonite large U-lock with a cable for the back wheel for 20+ years of riding (4+ years of all-year-round riding) and (knock wood) never had a problem. I always lock to something solid and whenever possible something within…"
notoriousDUG replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"You're right; I was thinking of Gr 40 not Gr 70 transport. The Gr 70 will be very hard to cut without monster bolt cutters.
It still cuts easier than the bike lock specific ones.

kiltedcelt replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"Just so you know DUG - that chain he's talking about cannot be cut with bolt cutters, unless you're talking about cutters with arms three feet long. I worked at Home Depot for 7 years in the hardware department where we used a hydraulic…"
notoriousDUG replied to Jack Cebe's discussion 'Gauging interest in a bike chain lock design'"50 bucks for a chain that is easy to cut with bolt cutters?
Thanks nut no thanks...
Do some more research on the chains that are out there and why they, and their locks, cost as much as they do. Link shape, hardening process and specific…"

Hi Chainlinkers,I fabricated a bike chain about a month ago for my 29" mountain bike because my Ulock wouldn't fit it, I already had a padlock, and I didn't want to dish out the money for one of those expensive Onguard locks. I feel like I came up with a pretty good design and I wanted to see if people would be interested in buying them. The chain is 6600 lb, zinc coated hardened steel tow chain---pretty tough stuff. The chain length is approximately 4' It has a rubberized, flexible sleeve…See More
