Kryptonite Lock - Design

Design

A limitation of the Kryptonite lock is that it is heavy and bulky. Most (apart from the Fahgettaboudit Mini and M18 series) are provided with a plastic carrying bracket that will not fit all frames, nor will it retain the lock when riding over rough surfaces, making transport of this large lock difficult. For that reason many commuter cyclists leave this lock attached to a bicycle rack at their destination, rather than carry it back and forth every trip.

Famous quotes containing the word design:

    To nourish children and raise them against odds is in any time, any place, more valuable than to fix bolts in cars or design nuclear weapons.
    Marilyn French (20th century)

    I begin with a design for a hearse.
    For Christ’s sake not black—
    nor white either—and not polished!
    Let it be weathered—like a farm wagon—
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.
    Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
