Smart disc lock

Got this link to a rather smart solution of a disk lock that doesn't need to be stored under the seat and will not likely be forgotten to be removed before driving off. Thought I'd share.

Luma lock

Interesting concept!

Looks like V4 Rosso is going to have to get one of these and try it out. goofy.gif

We expect a full report posted with the results!

No s#!t. That's sweet! I wish I had thought of it.

It's a nice concept, and nice piece of engineering.
Mmmm.... engineering....

Dunno that I'd buy one though. I hardly ever use my disk lock, and when I do, it's such a rare occurence that I remember it's on the disk. Also, I put the keys into the little bag the disk lock was in, as a reminder to take the lock off.
However, it's definitely a pain having to get the disk lock out from under the seat and replacing it again. This looks like a good solution to that.

This thing has got me thinking - there must be a way (or a place) to lock the disk lock on the bike so it's convenient to access, like a bracket or summat. It'd have to be something that would rattle and where it woouldn't look too crappy.
Anyone got any ideas?
I must investigate this at luncheontime...

Or maybe I'll just buy one of these:

I've got a piece of string attached to my disc lock that I loop over on of the grips. That way I see the string and remember to take the lock off.

Well ABUS sells brackets for their locks.

OK, so here it goes: Yes it is exactly like it says in on the website. 491.gif


Sorry, but like MFP-2241 I use a brightly colored string to remind me of the lock.

I have a Xena XN 15: you will find it hard to forget to take it off. LOL!

I have no problem with my U-Lock...... but Ya'll seem more interested in the disc lock.
