thanks! i hear the same thing about bears. yeah, i always need to carry my lock so the weight matters. when i was on my steel trek 700, i didn't care. now that i got an aluminum frame, i'd rather not drag an anchor around with me.

though i really, really do not want my new bike stolen. they take 'em here in chicago.

might use both my krypto and the tigr together for parking on my street outside my apartment. and the tigr alone for errands. errands can still mean leaving your bike on the street for hours, but that tigr at least seems decent. i really like krypto's insurance policy though.

will be waiting a few days before i drop over $100 on a lock, so if anyone else has an opinion about light but effective locks, please weigh in.
