    I tried to watch the video, but the music, even turned almost all the way down, was SO annoying I killed the playback. I'd have muted it except I thought at some point, there might possibly be voiceover and if so, I didn't want to miss it.

    There was some other recent vid posted on here of the bike thief in NYC. I'd like to see that dude go up against this lock while the guy gets coffee.
    This.

    Not that video - if you go to their website, they have a destructive video posted. They go after the Ti band with bolt cuters (fail!), a hacksaw (took twice as long as the D-lock) and a grinder (took 3 times as long as a D-lock). Pretty impressive, if you ask me.

    Let's see if this works:

    I think it's too long for my top tube as well, but I like the concept very much.

    went to the shop in my building where they had some titanium. It was much thinner material and it was extremely hard to cut. both machinists agreed that a grinder would be the only way to cut thicker stuff.

    It sounds like it might not work for women's smaller bikes though.

    No. I don't believe squat.
    Gimme one to f*ck with myself, then I'll tell you if I trust it.
    oh, Knot, we are playing with titanium in the shop and it is HARD to cut. THAT is for real.

    Yeah, I'm thinking that someone needs to make a suggestion for a shorter version (once they are up an running) as we are a growing market segment!
