If anyone cares, You can go to the Kryptonite website, go to "Powersports" and you can see two other NY locks that are thicker and stronger than the NY 3000 bicycle lock. They have a higher security rating on Kryptonite’s scale, and if I remember right a higher $$ replacement policy. The 3000 is a good lock but it's NOT Kryptonite's strongest, most secure, NY lock. The other two locks are heavy, but I don't mind lugging mine around sometimes. They have the same lighted key, the same colors etc.
I think mine was about $79. Take a look! Better than the NY 3000 lock. Probably better than the best locks that C+ magazine tested. Not a big $$ investment.
