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:
“Humility is often only the putting on of a submissiveness by which men hope to bring other people to submit to them; it is a more calculated sort of pride, which debases itself with a design of being exalted; and though this vice transform itself into a thousand several shapes, yet the disguise is never more effectual nor more capable of deceiving the world than when concealed under a form of humility.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Nowadays the host does not admit you to his hearth, but has got the mason to build one for yourself somewhere in his alley, and hospitality is the art of keeping you at the greatest distance. There is as much secrecy about the cooking as if he had a design to poison you.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If I knew for a certainty that a man was coming to my house with the conscious design of doing me good, I should run for my life ... for fear that I should get some of his good done to me,—some of its virus mingled with my blood.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
