Just thought I would share this event. A week ago I put on one of those brake disk locks because I was going to be gone all week. I really never do this at home, never lock my doors either, just wanted to use it because I had it. When I went out to take a long waited (yes a week is LONG waiting) ride, I forgot I had put the lock on. I rolled the bike back a little turning it around, heard a little thunk. At that time I remembered I had put the dang thing on. Keep in mind this was a very little bump on the lock. So I got the key and went to take it off, key would not unlock it and it was a little bent from that little bump. I tried for about 15 minutes to get the dang thing unlocked. When I had enough messing around with it, I got a small framing hammer and started taping on it to see if it would straighten out. About 3 medium hard taps the lock came apart and was broken. I guess the moral of this story is, if you really want to lock the brake disk just get a master lock, at least you can tap on it with a hammer and it won’t break and it WILL unlock if you forget its there and bump it against the brake.
