MOST cordless drills spin 2,500rpm OR LESS. The drill
used in the don't steal bikes video doesn't look like it can spin 12,000rpms. It looks like 2,000rpms at most.
Just curious, do you know which drill Cycling Plus used that was 12,000rpm? Sounds like they used an angle grinder to me.....not a drill.
Which brings me to my point yet again...."mmm yeah"....it'll take you 30 minutes to cut through a Evolution level lock with a cordless drill and a cutting disc.
He would've had better luck if he used a strong drill bit to drill out the lock cylinder trying to get the pins out instead.
