Bonjour, kysersose.

What kind of bike are you riding? Are you located in France?

Welcome to BF!

Welcome Kysersose

A thread about locks would most likely get the best, most comprehensive answers in our General Cycling Discussion forum.

However, you may want to take AndrewP's suggestion and do a search first and you may find some great advice.

It's nice to have a new member from the home of the greatest bike race on earth.

I think i will buy another bike not expensive in order to make some displacements, because there is no perfect locks! but brands offer warrantly it bike is stolen! As abus in france offer 600€ is the bike is stolen with their U locks! i paid 1000€ for my bike!

That is a lovely bicycle, kysersose! I have never seen the admonition "Restriction d'usage : ne pas laver au jet d'eau haute pression." as part of a warranty before .

No, there are no perfect locks, although there are some very strong locks .

I don't know how many other members live in Lyon, but I am certain that at least a few have been through Lyon. I know that I would like to visit Lyon one day...

Oklahoma City! Now that's crazy!

Just make certain that if you make it to the US that you do it legally, all right ?

Don't want a fellow cyclist getting booted out of the country for being overly enthusiastic...
