Ah i see you too have been watching unhealthy amounts of LockPickingLawyer
Don't we all?
And from watching him we should all know never to use a padlock, because all that takes to pop is 2 wrenches
yup, gulty of charge
BosnianBill is the best. His skills and explanations are top flight. Next thing you know you've been enjoying watching someone pick locks for an hour.
he forgot the hydraulic cutter, that is a beast
god forbid a theif gets a hold of the "pick that bosnian bill and I made"
dont get the reference lol
@@Ahmad-qx6pg is a lock picking lawyer reference, every time he pulls out a disc detainer lock he gets out the "lock that bosnian bill and I made". ruclips.net/video/DuZWhRaLzhk/видео.html
O shit I just realized that lockpick is already launched for sale
Then we all screwed man , that disk picker is all that’s keeping the worlds secrets closed.
they sell it for $45....welp gg so much for people who don't have a garage to keep their bikes in.
People wouldn’t believe that a thief could get away with several minutes of angle grinding in broad daylight, but those people haven’t seen videos from London.
My GFs bike just got stolen recently from a bike locker below an apartment complex that is patrolled at night. I guess several minutes of power tools noises aren't something that concerns "security" personnel.
@@aluisious Maybe a small donation to look the other way?
Or New York City or Washington D.C. in the past decade. Degeneracy.
never seen it in person, but ive always thought to shout 'get the fuck away from my bike asshole' as gruffly as possible to see what happens if i do...
@@f_r_e_d Definitely. Even a lazy security guard would hear an angle grinder vs chain, 100%. Only possibility, they were in on it.
Lockpicking Lawyer has pretty much made me think that nothing is safe, ever.
Keep your bike in a garage.
Agreed, but also the most common place I've seen bikes stolen is in and around cities which would be while you're at work..
Though, in my many years of riding I don't recall ever parking somewhere that even had something to lock on to.. even at home
And I'm not in the business of ramming anchors into the concrete garage of a rental property
More for when ur at work or stopped at some store really, if ur home yeah, put it in the garage
@@MotoCat91 in situation like that i chain the wheels to the frame. They wont roll it far. Or invest in brake locks/ fork locks.
And keep your garage in your basement, heavily fortified by hungry attack dogs and 100,000 volts of electricity.
@@MotoCat91 In 1974 some ambitious thieves stole my brothers Suzuki Water Buffalo from our garage one night.
True story.
He used the words “nearly unpicksble without specialized tools” so he didn’t inadvertently summon the Lockpicking Lawyer by saying unpickable lock
This video is an 8:40 minutes advertisment
@@AgustinBernardo Not. It says nowhere that it is sponsored plus he would have had to tell us. He is just a legitimate biker wanting everyone to understand the safest choice and why.
@@tgnuma2 it didn't appear to be like that. There are ways to cover up ads that appears to be video reviews. It happens all the time, you know, the so called "Publitubers"
@@AgustinBernardo So your argument here is that after all of those expensive solutions that he could have gotten sponsorship from he instead told us to get some hella bad ass chain and call it a day? Who is funding this covert advert campaign? Big chain groups?
@@pramienjager2103 it's not something difficult, a lot of Publitubers accept cheap trash for free or some "good products" and they analyze them with a biased conclusion.
No word of a lie, my friend has a Honda Grom, and the kryptonite chain, Ive asked him why he doesnt keep his bike in a shed or house, why does he keep it in his garden, he showed me the lock and said nobody will be able to steal it. His face when i picked up the bike and started carrying it.
General you chain both wheels down to something solid, like your house or concrete driveway. Then you have to pick or cut 2 chains, remove both wheels or carry away 20 tonn of concrete. It's not perfect but certainly a deterant. It's impractical to do when your at the shops so that would be the best way to steal it.
You lifted 230+ lbs and casually started carrying it?
@@danz7462 I've done it, lots of good grab points on bikes so a good squat and hug will have that thing down the street in a matter of minutes lol
A good rope also makes a grom into an uncomfortable backpack
@@veneratedmortal4369 Eh, I would chain it to the fork stem rather than the wheels. You'd need a longer chain or a closer anchor to park to, but no option to bypass the chain
@@danz7462 ofcx its only 100 kg aprox .. not that hard
When you buy an insanely strong lock system but then the thief breaks the pole your bike is tied to...
well, ya know, as they say "any security system is only as strong as its weakest link"
Yep, only useful if they've installed thick steal grounded mounts, but most places use hollow aluminum. Weaker than a damn cable lock, practically.
With bicycles sometimes the thiefs go angry and cut your frame instead of the lock just to fuck you up hahaha
@@twhis9843 have you tried GPS tracking on your bike? Soon I'm off to my bike course, and wanted to buy a Z650 Kawasaki from a dealership as a 1st bike, as I live in apartment complex I have to leave it downstairs. SO I was thinking about kryptonite chain + GPS tracking module underneath a seat.
@@Seredinh under the seat is the first place they will look for a tracking device if they know what they are doing. If they had enough time they would find it anyway but put it somewhere a bit more conspicuous
“The make battery operated ones for A holes that steal shlt.” Lolololol, well said!
Out of the whole clip, I loved the ending, beautiful.
Plotwist hahahshsha
This made me watch to the very end 😅
LoL me too
Do you mean the ads?😂
You thief
FortNine themes are always so fun to see. Every video is just so damn creative.
If your burglar was peeing his pants using the angle grinder to cut the chain, he's obviously not from the UK, where any self respecting scroat would have been through that in seconds. Bike theft; one area where Britannia still rules the waves.
Seriously. I had a kryptonite chain Andy bike was gone in under a minute.
@@buildeli was it locked? lol
@T. Winter Is that Motorbikes or are you including pedal power?
@T. Winter Cool, have a great day, and stay safe.
need almax or pragmassis
The best combination is to have a heavy chain which locks a wheel to a firm point and an alarmed disk-block on the other wheel.
So both wheels are blocked, the bike can't be lifted on a van and as soon as a thief tries to cut anything, that alarm is going to set off.
Basically what I do, plus lock the handlebars. It would take an enormous amount of effort to get the bike, and security patrols where I park for work would likely notice all the commotion from the alarm and the grinder and the theif would just give up completely.
That is always my fear. Strong guys or a hoist that just pick it up and put it on a truck.
The best combination is to remember you have insurance and don't bother with locks
That is how I have mine setup, chained to the post on my carport.
have you ever heard about insurance being increased as soon as you make claim? @@cosmic_gate476
"is as hopeless as the leafs vs zamboni drivers" slayed me lolol
Vinny G canes fan here. Great night.
can you explain for us non canadian people?
mse A short while back, the Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL team, Leafs for short) lost to the Carolina Hurricanes. The Hurricanes ran out of regular goalies in the middle of the game due to injuries. This required an "emergency goalie" to be put in. The designated emergency goalie was the zamboni driver for the Leafs arena, as he had some goalie experience. The zamboni driver was able to keep the Hurricanes in the lead and win the game against the Leafs.
Also, smack talking the Leafs is a bit of a national pass time :)
@@cdddtdmd that's actually funny as hell didn't know the story behind it but now I do an holy hell that's a good one.
This explains why I saw Ryan grind away my bike lock this morning
It's also important to mention that it is only secure as what you actually lock it to. And park in a place where someone may be deterred from using an angle grinder a little more (ie, street parking vs underground). Also the best defense is actually to have it hidden from view (have your rain cover packed with you or park it behind a friends car) because if a thief sees a Ducati, and and something they don't know is actually a custom race bike, they will more likely just steal that poor other fellas Ducati.
It isn't really just that they don't know it is a custom race bike. Even if they knew, the ducati would probably be smarter to steal. They either take them apart and sell the parts, or in some cases forge new documents for them. Something like a custom race bike, they couldn't actually sell to anyone.
TBF you could just put the chain around the back wheel.
@@erica.5620 Yeah, lock around the back wheel + tied around the frame basically always puts the lock as the weakest link.
"Hidden from view" is a double-edged sword if you mean it literally. A hidden bike is a bike that has nobody around to notice it's being stolen. Look to pedal bicycles where there's strength in numbers-if your bike is surrounded by 99 other bikes, that's a 1% chance that your bike is going to get stolen. Not to mention, nobody cares more for other bikers than bikers themselves.
All of us: Wow, I need THAT lock.
Lockpickinglawyer: Give me 30s
Locks are to keep honest people honest and lazy thieves lazy. If a persistant thief wants your shit, it's theirs. Good vid though.
Yeah, I'm just saying... whether inside a store and leaving your bike chained outside or the same in the middle of the night, nobody is going to sit outside a store or in the pitch black shooting sparks like mad for 4minutes.
Most galling example of this I saw was a guy in the UK who had his custom Nissan Skyline taken from his front driveway, through a locked metal gate. They busted the gate, iirc, dragged the car out snapping the handbrake, put it on a flatloader or large van of some sort and drove it off. In broad daylight. This was not an insecure car or location, or a crappy neighbourhood. I still wonder what their setup/social cover would've been to get away with it - I'm assuming they went full audacity, hi-vis, fake business liveries, all that.
@@boiledelephant Well honestly man, I would be willing to bet if the person "towing" the car away looks confident in what they are doing and not peeking around corners like a creeper, 90% of people would not pay it a second thought.
Most thieves are lazy and stupid on top of it, otherwise they wouldn't be thieves, or at least they would steal bikes instead of millions.
@@boiledelephant damn
LockPickingLawyer: this is offensive.
Yea the thing I've learned from him is that the weak point is near the Keyhole as opposed to the bind itself. it doesn't matter what kind of lock it is if the mechanism for locking it take 5 seconds to break open
Flavin statistically almost no thief can pick locks as quick as LockPickingLawyer does. At least those who wander around town with bolt cutters looking for an opportunity. And that’s who we wanna protect from with chains etc. If someone really wants to steal your motor- or bicycle, they will, and there’s not much you can do to prevent it from happening.
You commented early than me!
@@ruyveng I agree, for the most part a good chain will deter the opportunist thief. Which is probably a large amount of thieves. But what I'm trying to get at is that there's more than one way through a chain/lock apart from through its strongest link. Logically speaking you would want to target the weakest link in a chain and I'm betting that not all the people who watch lockpick lawyer have good intentions.
@@trollofire96 True. I read somewhere that it's not so much about protecting your bike, as it is to discourage the thief and make him choose a less protected bike around ;) Kryptonite locks require more time to pick, and their chains more time to cut. It'll make the thief look for easier target. Of course, everything is pickable, but the question is how long it'll take ;)
I don't know shit about motorcycles. But goddamn I'm glad I found this channel
Glad you found the angle grinder, too, eh? :-)
What I'm getting here is that the best theft security is a GPS tracker hidden in the chassis and then a really good insurance policy.
and a bat if you are fortunate to catch them
The best security is the thing you use.
You could go out and buy an almax big boy chain, but if its sitting at home in your garage when you're bike gets nicked from the shops, it's 0% effective.
If your bike has any lock on it at all, that in itself is a deterrent. If it's causing a thief to use a noisy tool, again that deters some and stands a chance of alerting you.
What's the point of the GPS if you have good insurance?
Isn't the point of good insurance that they pay if your bike gets stolen? So what's the GPS for?
@@Jehty_ never understood this either. If my bike gets nicked I'd rather a new one. Than track it down and be left with something with unknown damage to have to repair and fix.
@@Jehty_ Theoretically the police could track down the bike and recover it for you without you needing to go through the insurance company in the first place.
"This is the Lock-picking Lawyer, and today we have...." (lock instantly falls apart on its own)
"and here is the tool that Bosnian Bill and I made" ......... oh sorry, wrong channel ......

@@jk6956 That chain is terrible, lasts seconds here.
ruclips.net/video/YKO1yudGVNg/видео.html
As I just learned today, also remember that if you have a chain with a fiber covering, make sure you do not loop it around any part of the exhaust if you are then going to run the motorcycle for troubleshooting. Mine started smoking very bad, and a large chunk of the coating melted onto the exhaust. Luckily the chain itself wasn't hurt at all of course, and the remnants of the coating did very quickly melt off of the pipe. Still scary when I first saw the smoke billowing, though.

@@destino009 you forgot "nothing on 3" bro
i hate that i started watching lock picking lawyer some time ago, now i feel no lock is secure it all since he breaks them all so easy ;-;
It just has to break slower than the one next to yours - that's all.
It's not to protect against the professional lock smith or even the experienced thieves. It's meant to protect you against the average joe who wants to take your bike on a joy ride or to his buddies to paint it up.
Abus or assa abloy all the way. Spendy, but most novice morons cant just stick a paperclip in it and rake once (looking at you, masterlock)
The only lock he can't get through is the bowley lock.
It's really more about delaying the theft as much as possible, although parking a bike or motorcycle outside over night is just asking for trouble no matter what you do.
Could you do a video on other "deterrents" like disc brake locks and grip locks? That would be very helpful. Keep up the good work and your awesome sense of humor!
I think what I like most is the effort that goes into each episode. They are all so well researched and thought out - Ryan Kluftinger is not lazy! The excellent script is just the beginning.
"As hopeless as the Leafs against a Zamboni driver." As a Leafs fan I'm just gonna sit here and die inside a little bit.

Or just park next to more valuable bikes
quackerzdb probably better secured than mine, so I’ll just drag the thief’s attention to the easiest one 😂
quackerzdb work fine but the way a thief thinks isn’t necessarily in terms of value of a motorcycle. It’s risk vs reward. The less risk the greater the reward generally speaking. If you’ve got your 2020 Harley bolted to the ground with 50 chains it’s less likely to be stolen than the ninja 250 next to it with the key hanging from the ignition. The more complicated you make it the better off you are usually
Why didn't you include the "U" lock?
Great info. Like others, I'd love to see a similar review of D and mini-D locks and disc locks.
The problem with both D and Disc locks is that they do not tie the bike down. it deters opportunists who intend to roll or ride the bike away, but nothing more than that.
Any sort of semi-organised bike theft is not so much about the bike itself, as it is about taking it apart and selling in parts, then cut up the frame and sell it for scrap.
They roll up in a van, lift the bike up into the back, and drive off into the night and straight for the border. By the time you realise what has happened, they are 800km away.
lock picking lawyer, he has reviewed many motorcycle locks
@@fermitupoupon1754 could use chain and a d/u lock but you have to use 2 but if you were that concerned maybe you should get out of the hood
In London (UK) if they want it, they’ll have it. If I absolutely have to park it out of my sight, it’s getting the alarmed disc lock + f*** off chain + cover. Every time. Make ‘em work for it. Park it next to other bikes so your alarmed, disc locked, covered and chained bike becomes the least attractive option.
I use one lock if it's in my closed parking space.
If I leave it in the street I use one disk lock on the front, one padlock (beefy) on the rear disk AND an alarm system that screams, gives me a notification with GPS position and turns off the motorcycle.
I think I'm good. Of course, it can be stolen, but it's MUCH easier to steal my neighbors ride.
Can u provide more info on the gps and turning off the bike installment?
Good day! May I know what kind of GPS with disabling mechanism for alarm system you use?
@@BubblyBessie its something local to where i live. It depens on where you live

I almost fell off the chair from laughing when he picked up the YZ50 and walked away in the closing scene :DDDDDD
The best anti-thief device I use for my bike is I smear poo all over it. It really works.
This guy must be popular with the ladies...
I attach my bike to a tree and no one ever steals it.
Sounds like he has reached the bottom with thieves😒
I knew a guy who chained his bike to a small tree.. he returned to a stump and no bike.
They even stolen.tree? Thats another level of greed m8 😂😂
Here in the UK bike theft is an epidemic. Not helped by what must be 90 per cent of bikes sitting there without a single lock. You will never beat a determined well-equipped thief, but the idea is to make it as difficult and time-consuming as possible so hopefully they think 'stuff this' and move on to an easier target. And there are plenty around.
That parting shot is classic! Just brilliant!
Should’ve included some of those locks that go around the brake and clutch lever, also brake disc locks
The ones that no round the brake lever are useless either undo the bleed nipple or cut the brake line.
@@Terjesel was going to say as well that with the brakes on they can use the wheels to lift the bike away.
I use a lever lock and disc lock along with a heavy duty chain connected to a steel fence post. They going to have to work and make a lot of noise to get my bike.
@@themadburleigh Not just that, but they're almost universally cheap crap, that can be quickly forced open, and they don't have alarms. They also almost universally use tubular locks, which are some of the worst locks out there, and can be picked with a bic pen. They're entirely for show, and to make the seller a quick buck.
@@Vcen7 they are deterrents to make it more difficult and time consuming to steal the bike. you should not rely solely on a handle bar lock, but it never hurts to add time and another level of security a thief has to deal with.
Great vid as usual!
Cables are a joke.. you can cut them with a good pair of scissors much faster than shown! Should have reviewed some disc brake locks too... they're a good addition to the chain. Cheers.
This, not even mentioning them?
Indeed! Disc brake locks should be mentioned and definitely tested!
Simple because you dont need to break a disclock. you just pick up the bike and put it in your van. Then somewhere else have all the time and privacy to break it
@@hansdejong1345 that's why I said as an addition to a chain.. especially an alarmed one.
@@hansdejong1345 A decent disk brake lock has an alarm. And I like to see you try picking up my 300kg bike.

I’ve been using a Kryptonite New York chain, and a Xenia disc brake lock for four years, in an apartment, in a major city. No issues at all!
I was really hoping the LPL would just show up touch one of these locks and they would just fall open.
Thanks Ryan. Great information and as always the vid is amazingly creative and beautifully photographed and produced. I think you missed the liquid nitrogen and cold chisel ability to shatter chains which I would have found interesting as it does not light up the night sky like an angle grinder.
A good video that does mention the two most common ways to bypass almost any locks with minimal resistance and no big or heavy tools.
The first way is to carry the motorbike to a truck or a van. Simple and efficient method if there is no anchoring or a heavy duty hardened chain to a heavy unbreakable steady object. Traffic signs is nothing of the above...
The other way thefs use is cold spray and brute force shortly after. Even the toughest steel becomes fragile in very cold temperatures. Therefore with a hammer and some penetration tool threads may break the moving parts of lock cylinder in pieces.
Few manufacturers have in mind this method because it is almost impossible to avoid. As there is a key, there is a way to spray a lock. Therefore there some kind of taboo about this method and the big brands do not talk about it.
A countermeasure is to have a lock design that even if the cylinder is destroyed or bend to pieces to prevent the lock to be opened. But this is really difficult or expensive or really heavy to be made...
Therefore you find almost no company claims about resistance to cold spray.
Actually I know only one less known Spanish company with some of its locks having the French standard SRA and cold spray resistance...
The best method to protect your bike is to hide it and have it secured in private parking.l well locked with hardened heavy chain and a good disk lock with loud alarm. Even better if there is a GPS antitheft device. Although if you have some expensive bike and the thief targeted yours instead of others less secured in the streets, the only thing you can do is to buy time: Time the thief has to spend therefore a bigger risk for him to be arrested.

@Wuanslm bro, it can be nuked by a bomb. That doesn't make it useless. Thieves in my area won't be walking around with a huge f*cking sledgehammer and an anvil to strike it against like Bennetts Bikes did, and he even claimed that it's very noise to use an angle grinder. Too much problem when there are much better targets.

Great video. Thank you very much for doing all of that research and giving the world the data.
it's like you read my mind years before I had the question
What about U locks?
It's like the chains, but not as flexible. Depends really on the type of lock available. If it's a traditional tumble lock, it's pickable by the video's standards.
he recommended the oxford boss lock in the 2017 version of this video, so I assume he thinks its somewhat useful.
@@Kikker861 i have a 12 mm chain and a 65 mm padlock that seems to have a 11 mm shackle. know if i should buy a 12 mm kryptonite keeper 785 instead? which would require a thief more time?
Part of what makes the chain king is it's tendency to want to dance around while being cut with a grinder. A U-lock is easier to stabilize and therefore easier to cut.

Great video. Personally, I've found the Abus Granit Detecto 8008 to be an incredible piece of kit. The combination of alarm and sturdy yet compact (vs a chain) lock to be an extremely versatile piece of kit. I had used an Abus detecto 8077 and this saved my bike it was attacked with a sledge hammer and chisel and didn't break before I could get out of bed and confront the thieves... in my underwear in January. The lock never worked properly again but it saved my bike, I think the design of the 8008 is much smarter with its integrated locking bolt, and would be a big enough challenge any thief to go for a different bike.
Where do you come from my friend? London?
Depending on the bike and brake disc a puck lock would work great. Most can be keyed to include anti-pick pins, offer some of the best protection against grinding/cutoff discs, and without chain are pretty compact. They are what we used to secure our vans when I worked as a locksmith a while back.
And best thing ever, a disk lock with an alarm. Pretty damn hard to defeat without waking up everyone.
@@leolego2 just cut the disc. Don't worry about the alarm because unless the owner is nearby, noone will give a crap about it.
07:16 That grin after the stupid 007-like pun absolutely killed me. Thank you so much for this video. Just about to by my first (Svartpilen 401) and pondering how to secure it.
Not with a 7mm chain, that's for sure! ruclips.net/video/YKO1yudGVNg/видео.html
Excellent vid and even if everybody has their own ideas about what lock is best, it gets you thinking about better security rather than to just hope for the best. Also where you park a bike in public is important. Generally I try and park it in a well lit area near other vehicles in lieu of on its own somewhere. Gr8 vid fortnine! Well done.

Could you do disc locks and alarms weakness video too please? 🙏 thanks.
Cordless tools going full tilt get emptied in 15-20mins tops. So you'd be safe with 3 of those chains or 2 slightly bigger ones.
Or, just get a gps/alarm that calls you on vibration.

Not to mention, grinders are loud as hell when chewing on metal. I wouldn't expect them to be used in the dead of night.

There's no such thing as completely safe. I lost my KTM 690 Duke with a 19mm Pragmasis chain on it as well as a couple of lighter 'deterrent' locks. The thieves in London carry enough spare batteries and cutting discs to cut through anything. Oh and the bike I had before the KTM, when the thieves failed to get through the chain, they just smashed up the bike with a hammer instead.
cutting through chain takes much less time than shown here. put a little tension on the chain so that it doesnt move around and you are through in under a minute.
U make some of the best motorcycle content on youtube. Plz post more.
Gotta love this kind of videos; informative and entertaining at the same time.
Awesome video as always! How about disc locks?
Those will be gone in seconds with a magic saw 😆
I rather keep a llama, a dog and a goose as my secondary failsafe apart from kryptonite chain
I think disc locks are pretty good. Whenever I hear about people having their bikes stolen (on forums and such on the internet), I ask them what sort of locks they had, and they never have disc locks. Cheap disc locks may be easy to defeat, but a quality one will stop most thieves. They won't stop professionals, but most of us don't have bikes that professionals would target. I have a disc lock and microdots on my bike. I'm wondering if I should get a chain too after watching this video, or will that be too inconvenient?
@@dgphi Yeah me too, I have an Abus8077 and I think it's fantastic. I just wanted Ryan to try and break one😂
I have a chain when I park outside my garage in the summer but when I'm out riding I stick with my disc lock.
Ryan is so much cooler than James Bond;)
He should be the next bond. ..as presently the last few have all been as seedy as they come and not classy at all,in fact cannot think of a player being classy really , bond's character would have to be changed somewhat. 😒
This channel is the highest quality channel out there...good job
With recent increased theft in my area, I decided to up my security last weekend.. I went from using a single U lock (front wheel to bike rack), to a heavier U lock in that position. I now put the second U lock through the front wheel and forks, along with a heavy cable through the fork lock and bike rack.
This means a smart theif would have to get through two heavy U locks.. if one only managed to get through the main one (which is rather awkward to reach) and the cable, they'd be left with a bike that cannot roll (steering locked as well). Ontop of the annoying mix of locks, I've also installed an alarm which is sure to start chirping as soon as someone tries to mess with it. When you consider that all of this is protecting a rebel250, I think most will move on to an easier and more valuable target.
My friends bike got stolen, usually what happens is that they cut the lock and start the bike. Thus, after experiencing this, I started putting steel u-locks in the chain of my bike. That way, even if he starts the bike, the small lock will jam the transmission. Ofcourse, the bike would need a service and a hefty fees but a bike is better than having no bike.
Plus points if you manage to entangle the lock using a chain between the perforated disk breaks and the chain
@@mdahsenmirza2536 I’d stick a u lock through the rear wheel before I started locking it to the rack (technically I’m not supposed to do that in my building).. anyway, I’d lock the steering! Set the alarm and have that ulock in the rear. I started locking it to the rack after I was woken up by my alarm around 4am one morning. I ran out to my balcony in time to see to guys running away.. one into a car, the other into a uhaul. This was clearly a planned operation.. I called the cops and a couple local uhaul dealers with as much info as possible in hopes of busting these scumfucks.
I’ve had a handful of scooters and mopeds stolen over the years.. I also caught a couple kids trying to steal my neighbors r6 a while back… that’s a whole neither story but if anything, I learned that the cops couldn’t care less. Highlight of the story is that I ran out and tried to snap a pic of the kids.. couldn’t find em but they were leaving on another clearly stolen bike as I got back to my lot. Called the cops. 5 mins later, I’m talking to them on the side of the road r right as I’m describing them, they rolled right by us. I pointed them out and the cops just looked at one another for a couple seconds before one said “we don’t chase fast bikes.. could be dangerous.. maybe someone else will get em”… wtf? That’s someone’s bike rolling away! If nothing else, it was plateless and the riders had zero required gear. It was also around 430am, absolutely no traffic, and I was talking to four officers in two cars. They couldn’t have been more useless.
The bike not being able to roll is not that big of a deal.
Park a van next to it, pick up the bike with two people an put it in the van.
(or drag it in the van if it is to heavy to pick up)
@@Jehty_ moral of the story, if someone wants your shit they are going to take it
The only thing I learned is that no matter what lock,if a thief really wants to steal something they'll get it.
No wait .. mission isnt completed yet ! We still want to know the best lock ever ! For those who dont have a garage !
A 16mm or larger diameter strengthened chain (Pragmasis and Almax are the leading two) with round profile links (not square or hex), with a Squire SS65CS or Abloy PL362 padlock. This is the single toughest setup against all types of attack combined. It's horribly heavy, though. I tried riding around with my 1.5m 16mm setup. In the top box, it's so heavy it screws up the bike's balance. In a backpack, it's dangerously destabilising when you lean over. Slung over your shoulder, it absolutely destroys your collar bone. It's a fixed-location setup only!
@@boiledelephant this. I AVE a 19mm Almax, fucking beast of a chain. Doesn't leave my street though, even just lifting it through the wheel can be a workout.
just rent a garage slot.Sleeping peacefully at night is what u must be aiming for
@@boiledelephant I have the 20mm Almax chain, with the abloy362 as well, been trying to find out the average time for grinders to cut through those beasts, so I know how much time I have to get ready before I beat some ass
Should be allowed to shoot thieves, although I imagine most of us wouldn't fancy becoming killers; but, what else to do? I always fear that day, having to destroy someone's life - however you can bet your bottom dollar that I won't let anyone ruin mine.
00:27 they actually found a building that looks like the logo😂10/10 for effort on that scene
The name, the face, first impressions arent always right. Your THE best motorcycle content creator and honestly in my book in my top 3 channels in all of RUclips.. btw the second video I watched had Geoffrey in it . I spit my drink up ...
Bennetts brought me here. Shots fired, according to them this video is irresponsible. The man cut the kryptonite in seconds!
I remember lmao when this video came out, Bennett's just made be comeback to it. A good thief can cut a 19mm Almax in 4 minutes.
@@Alexnikpo I'm afraid no chain takes a good thief four minutes. But any chain will slow them down, and the thicker the chain the more hassle and exposure they have. Any security is better than no security, I just hope that people understand what they're spending their money on. John
4:37 Oh yes the zamboni driver reference
Excellent! Great production.
I really appreciate you doing this. Definitely helped me out with my decision.
My solution has been a good chain wrap with the kevlar from chain saw safety pants. I tried to cut through it with a grinder and it tangles the grinder up so bad that if someone tries to steal your bike, you'll end up with a new grinder
I've had my eye on a pannigale across the street for a while. Thankyou
If you ca not even spell the model name right your thievery is unworthy! East European heritage?
@@planpitz4190 since when spelling has any think to do with a skill ?:)))
Not really funny but allowable.
never has someone earned my subscribe with a single video, but this... does put a smile on my face
LMAO .... FRIGGIN' AWESOME video !!! LOTS of editing and it's appreciated !!! GREAT job !!
With the information I have learned from lpl and fortnine, I would say the best choice is an abus 37/80 lock and the reinforced kryptonite chain.
I hope you have a back like an ox hauling all that weight around.
I had my bike locked to pole when I was in Safeway. Used a $17 kryptonite chain lock from Walmart.
Came out and all that was left was a cut piece of chain link.⛓️😣
You get what you pay for.
Ryan's content is just too good!
Huh, I actually really enjoyed this! Good job :)
