This is the lock

To prove that the 'Lock-Off' bike lock is nearly completely unbreakable, we have placed a live feed web cam on one of Dublins most notorious streets for bicycle thievery bastardness. Attached is a sign saying 'Steal Me', some bolt cutters, a hack saw and our Lock Off bike lock all by itself at night in the dark.

Why don't a few boardsie's run down and jump on the webcam? :pac:

The bike is pretty crap, nobody in their right mind would steal it...would be fun to see what happens at night however.

I'm amazed noone has cut off the bolt cutters and the hacksaw and made off with them.

EDIT:
Wonder will it be left like this in the morning.

Would it actually be legal to steal it considering it says "steal me" ?

If it was really there it would be gone by now, pretty easy.

Use hacksaw and bolt cutters to steal each other.
Use the hacksaw to cut the rail and steal the bike, cycle off into the distance with webcam in your pocket and sign around your neck..

Why are they looping the vid? The bike has probably gone already. Viral marketing fail

If it isn't gone yet, I hope someone just uses the hacksaw on the railing and the company gets fined for the damage.

Why bother if it's obviously a loop?

Would be better marketing if they had it live and people could go by and wave etc...

What a scam, it's a loop. It's probably already stolen by now.

This is what my friend and I did when we got a free bike. A friend left it outside for a week hoping someone would steal, but no one did. That was until she told us about it...
