Ladies and gentleman!

1. Buy a $699 bendable bike so no one can steal it
2. Buy a $5 lock to lock up your current bike.

Choice is yours!]]>Jul 11th 2010 8:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/

i know this is old, but a $5 lock isnt going to do shit. i forgot my (ironically named) Fuhgeddaboutit NYC Kryptonite lock once while riding into work. i figured i was chaining up right in front of the revolving doors to my office in tribeca (a fancier neighborhood in manhattan) so i just went down to the bike shop and picked up a Kryptonite cable because it was cheaper. i got the heavier cable which i think is about 10mm thick and figured if it just gets me to 6pm (still plenty of daylight out as it was mid summer) that i'd be fine. i chained up at about 10am and when i went out for lunch, the bike was gone. left was my new cable snipped in two like it was butter. yeah it was a thinner cable, but i figured i'd be safe right outside an office building where there are always tons of people. lesson learned.]]>Jul 13th 2010 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/Jul 11th 2010 7:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/It should come with a pole built in.]]>Jul 11th 2010 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/

Yeah, I saw a video a while ago (can't find it right away) of a bunch of people going around setting up bikes and then stealing them, from bolt cutters up to an angle grinder. This was in NYC, one location was Union Square. Nobody gave a damn.

BTW, a good angle grinder will take 10-15 minutes to chew through a good U-lock; cutting one of those breakaway sign poles would probably take a minute or two.]]>Jul 12th 2010 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/Jul 11th 2010 7:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/Jul 11th 2010 7:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/When did he start selling bendable bikes?]]>Jul 11th 2010 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/11/bendable-bicycle-wraps-itself-around-a-pole-in-a-good-way/

Knowing my local authority, it would definately be illegal, and they'd have a team of 50 people doing a stakeout to fine the guy when he returns...

It said "secondary lock", meaning that meant to lock the wheel that the u-lock can't reach.
