Wow, that is sad. My question for all of you cyclists and bicycle experts. I bought the NY 3000 U lock to use mostly at the law school parking garage. I did buy that model so that I could lock it to a parking meter on the street in DC and hope that it would be safe.

How effective is the NY 3000 U lock? I don't see a U lock being broken in the video, is that because they're easier to break than those chains and padlocks?
