Needing a long cable for touring to lock to bigger trees I got the aluminum crimp to make my own

believe me once the crimp was slammed tight wit a hammer, its not going to open again.


Best cable? Armored inside interlocking steel segments http://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Secur...eel-O-Flex-950

I like chain locks http://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Secur...el-O-Chain-880

and their folding lock .. http://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Secur...it-X-Plus-6500



adequate, when no one wants to cut it ... the braided type .. Trek has something like it , now . double loop ..
that may be what you asked about..
