When I packed up to go back home I saw the same theif collapsed by my bike with a shatterd angle grinder and a slew of broken hacksaws next to him. He had been out there for hours before the grinder blew up, and he was hacksawing at the lock until he passed out from exhaustion. Just goes to show you that if a theif tries to break through your NYFU he's likely to die.

In fact, I'd say that if there were 2,000 thieves in the world, and 13 million people drive vans, that at least 73.8% of pro theives will not attempt to steal a bike with a strong Kyrptonite lock. The ones that do attempt will either go to jail or die, so the real number is more like 110%.

Kryptonite, the name that is always on top!

Krptonite!

I'm going to name my second child NYFU (pronounced Nie-foo) so that they too may be unbreakable.
