I love the direct microfinance concept as much (or more) as I like the lock! I'd want to see closer pictures of how the carrier protects the frame from scratches before signing up, though. And some information on how the narrower bar resists theft (is it directly proportional to the wider one, or something different?).

Yes I would use that. Lightweight and strong is good.

+1 on the lock. I have a big ULock now and DH normally carries the locks in his pannier as my bike lacks a rack... I ride with him nearly all of the time so this isn't a problem, but if I DID go on a solo ride, would be good to have something as strong and lightweight as this.

Pretty cool, but I'm not sure I like how it needs to be carried.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

that's VERY unique and cool! With my super short top tube, I'm sure it would hang off the back about 4 inches, tho.
It's much nicer than the standard u-lock, tho!

I love it! All y'all go get that nice thin lock, and I'll follow you around with tinsnips and and ice cube and steal your bikes!
More bikes for me, more better!
(just kidding! But I'd need some convincing before I'd trust it more than my U-lock. I'm an old fuddy-duddy that way.)

I wonder if I would bump my knees on the upstroke riding? I've had that problem before with even top tube bags. Small frames can present challenges with gear sometimes.
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.
My most sturdy lock is a U lock and omg is it heavy. The idea of lighter would be beautiful if it fit on the bike to ride and performed as expected.
Side bar: love that orange color of the bike in the vid!
That's true, especially climbing. My knees rub on my bento box when I'm standing.

In comparison to the smaller sized u lock, that whole operation looked clumsy to me. The Ulock, once one is used to it, seems more seamless to operate. Then again that new lock covers front to back and I, (with my daily commuter bike anyway) just lock to top or down tube to a pole. (my wheels are not quick release though). So at the end of the day, I think it depends on your lock needs.
