What do you all think,:

A lowe price point would be nice.

I feel like it's unnecessary...
This is my opinion so don't just take my advice.
1. If you're already carrying something, that's more weight on you.
2. It doesn't look very comfortable.
3. I'm a fan of 2 U-locks (1 if I'm not gone for a long time.) rather than just a thick heavy chain.
4. It looks like a seat belt!
5. Super pricey.

I'd LIKE to say the weight wouldn't be an issue for me... but I already HAVE a chain, that would interface with both the security padlock I own AND my U-lock. It spends a lot of time on my rolling tool platform in my garage! 3' of chain weighs a LOT more than even 9' of 1/2" cable!

It might depend on where I wore the chain; around the waist, I'd feel the drag on my legs. Maybe over one shoulder, like a courier bag.....

Over the should would be better I think. More "fashionable" in my opinion haha.

Yeah. How about encased in a hi viz reflective sash?

A solution in search of a problem. I carry my U-Lock like this.........



............hooked through the rails of my saddle and steadied by my seat bag. Someone pointed out that the lock might swing against the seatstays and chip the paint, so I added a pair of 1-1/2" strips of black electrical tape on the seatstays to protect them.

It's silent, secure, and the seat bag is squeezed just enough by the U-Lock that the lock is mostly prevented from swinging anyway.

This is an interesting concept. While it would be great for someone who primarily rides within his/her own neighbourhood, I don't know if I would want to wear that on my commute, since it would likely get uncomfortable after a couple of kilometres/miles. If I had a quick-errand bike, I would consider something like that. Most of my riding is for commuting, so that doesn't represent a good value for me.

Will it keep your pants from drooping?
Another pointless gizmo!
