trackstand Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Movie 1 Movie 2 kryptonite bike locks are: the best on the market the most secure the most indestructible open-able in 20 seconds with a 10 cent bic pen and the correct answer is "open-able in 20 seconds with a 10 cent bic pen". details of how to open any bike lock using a cylindrical key (including most kryptonite locks) have been blowing up a number of bike websites and discussion boards in the last few days and sure enough, it's easy as pie. check out this quicktime video of me cracking my $90 kryptonite EV disc lock in about 20 seconds. bike owners beware, that same bright yellow lock that once said "don't screw with me" now screams "steal me!". obviously, i post this information as a warning to lock owners - not as a how-to. stealing is bad. stealing bikes is worse.

trackstand Posted September 16, 2004 Author Share Posted September 16, 2004 it seriously took me under 60 seconds to open my old Krypto Evolution 2000 lock... I use one of the new Krypto New York Locks that have the keys that look like car keys, i guess these are not defective... if you look at the serial number on your key (the metal piece with numbers engraved) the kryptonite locks have kk- - - - or yse- - - - or nba- - - - the kk numbers key locks are the ones having the issues.

cloner Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Originally posted by phism this just makes me want to go around unlocking people's bikes to freak them out. I'd go around and unlock 'em, and do something stupid like chain them to the fence 5 feet up. or just turn em around yeah, maybe just subtle shit.
