Anyone who owns kryponite locks for their bikes might want to keep them in their apartment or house for a while. It seems that a cheap bic pen can open the most expensive locks in under 30 seconds. heres a website that contains movies of the demonstration. www.thirdrate.com

All right, time to steal some bikes. But in all honesty what that guy did to the lock in the video, you won't be able to do with a bike attached to it.

Thats messed up. I had one bike stolen already here in Berkeley. It was $500. Now I have a $600 bike and I dont use it anymore because I'm worried that its not safe.

I hate Bike thieves. They are the lowest form of life on this planet.

I would like to know how this wasn't found out sooner. It's not as if bic pens or bike locks are new inventions.

Now, it's time to take a pen to the door locks on soda machines, since they seem to be the same variety.

When I was riding bikes at college I always had a really nice bike for when I wanted to goto shopping centers, and then a really crappy bike for crowded places or high risk areas that wasn't even worth $40 :)

riding bikes when you have a drivers license or are old enough to have a drivers license is kinda gay
