kryptonite locks vs bic pen

pen wins!

was posted yesterday doozy

was posted today too, just now!

smarty boy needs to change the water in his flowers if he is going to make avideo to put all over the net.

if it gets posted again tomorrow i'll probably just go ahead and look at it :thumbsup

some article about it , not those videos :2 cents:

you know there are people out there pissed now, lock up your bike with a lock that can be opened with a bic pen

Well they will get the shit sued out of them for any bikes stolen.

the second one is odd, he puts the pen over the key hole wiggles it then pops it open, but he's holding the top part by the pen which seems unlikely unless theres a key in the key hole keeping it on the pen.

is that a popular bike lock or something?

Yes, one of the most popular U locks. Plus they range from 50 - 150 bucks.

A mate of mine got his bike stolen this very night, probably using this "exploit.

He had no idea about it. I sent him the links to the vids, and he's gonna try and claim on the insurance.

Doubt he'll get anything though.

haha they are worthless now

Indeed they're defeated with a 39 cent pen :Graucho


They spents millions of dollars (or so they say on making this lock)...

damn, i dont remember seeing that whole on a kryptonite lock

Yeah it's a tricky one to find. It's the hole you put your key in to unlock it.

:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh I've never laughed this hard in a long time. :winkwink:

Thankyou, thankyou. I'm here all week. Please tip your waitress.

Cool... I'm off to steal some bikes. :thumbsup

Did the company issue a statement yet? Would be interesting what they have to say. Wonder if they will go bankrupt.

Great, we're all happy for you..

I've got the Kryptonite New Yorker it has normal key style locking mechanism. Hopefully im safe :uhoh

smells like class action shit to me. lots of bikes will get jacked
because some dumbfuck engineer was too busy thinking about
all the dollars he'll make with the lock, and not about if it will
actually work.

Don't throw them out just yet. Kryptonite is promising free replacements (on certain models) for locks less than two years old and "deep discounts" on replacements for those who hold older locks, like me. www.kryptonitelock.com

For the second day in a row I have pleasured myself to your sig.

Is that strange?

Would you trust a company that sold you a useless lock the first time ?? even if it was free, you would have to be a moron to use this companies products again..
