Re: Recommend me a disc lock?
How big is your budget?

If this angle grinder resistance is beyond budget (it’s too expensive for most of us), I’d look to Abus.

Thanks. I did look to Abus and the Lock Picking Lawyer too and so the planets aligned and this was bought!

I have had a couple of Oxford Screamer alarmed locks. They will activate as soon as the bike is nudged. Not good in windy conditions as I found out when mine repeated went off while staying at a Premier Inn so had go and disarm it in the middle of the night. But works great otherwise.

Re: Recommend me a disc lock?
Forgot to mention that I use an alarmed disc lock because of all the stories I heard of people riding away without removing them so it's idiot proofing against myself.
