I was in Walmart to look for a lock and looked at the RoadTech 700C. People who have them say the work nice but I was surprised to find that almost everything seemed to be made of plastic. I can't help but wonder how easy it would be to get parts locally. It seems that to get a new, basic, solid citizen requires $250-$300, which isn't bad, it just means $130-$150 won't quite get you there. Le Tour it is.
