    I have a lock for sale here. It is a very heavy chain (around 4kg.) You wouldn't be carrying it on the bike. Also have gloves.

    What sort of lock are you looking for? Do you need it to be portable? Frame mountable?

    I probably have more Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit Mini locks than I need. In Dublin, too heavy to post.

    Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit Mini is a compact u-lock with a very thick shackle (18mm). This means:

    - It is very strong (good)
    - It is quite heavy (bad)
    - It is not frame mountable (bad)
    - You are slightly limited in what you can lock it too (bad, along with any mini lock).
    - There is no space in which to insert a bottle jack (good)

    There are lighter thinner mini locks that are more portable (but weaker), and larger thinner u-locks which are still frame mountable (but weaker).

    Find the cheapest online price and you can have it for 2/3 of that.

    Thanks Lumen,
    Keep me in mind if you decide to sell another. It can join the Looks pedals that you sold me last year.:D
