    Funny story about this lock. Once I lost my keys at college but could only get home by bike. Id given up on finding my keys that day but i still had to unlock my bike. We have a machinery department and one of the guys there offered to try to break my lock so I could go home. They much like in the video used massive bolt cutters and failed. Only way they got it off was to unbolt the bike stand it was locked up to and then unloop it. Fortunately did find my keys the next day but it definitely made me have a lot of trust in the lock.

    Wow. This is what I call a test. The foldylock performed really well and better than I thought it would. I didn’t expect a folding lock to put up a fight lock that. I think other posters need to stop constantly bringing up angle grinders. What percentage of bike thieves use angle grinders? 0.01% or less? Lot of other tools get the "job done" more discreetly without the high decibels and the sparks flying that brings attention.

    In many urban areas angle grinders are becoming more and more popular, I don't want to guess, but i'm sure its much higher than 0.01%. Thanks for watching.

    I live in a fairly nice neighborhood. There is so much daily noise from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, landscapers, etc. Plus a number of people using table saws for DYI projects in their garages. An angle grinder would be one of the least conspicuous noises from 8am - 8pm in any part of the city, commercial or residential.

    They are all using angle grinders. Carried in a backpack and a general public that just watches it happen.

    Did you find a supplier of the Mini in the UK? Most shops I’ve seen seem to only stock the Compact?

    I don’t have a UK based supplier for the Mini, the product is still relatively new, so I’m sure a few suppliers will eventually stock this in the UK.

    Just getting set up so that we can test this in future videos. The commonly targeted weak point of folding locks has long been the rivets, (normally with bolt cutters) hence why we’ve seen so many upgrades to the rivet protection on the best folding locks.
