Why are disc locks better?
A disc lock is stainless steel vs. most pad locks are laminated steel; and because the disc lock has a shorter shank it can not be cut with a bolt cutter like most pad locks can; thus it is more secure.
How safe are disc locks?
All disc locks have the same vulnerability – the bike can be picked up and put in a van. However, particularly in busy cities, a more likely attack is the ‘push-away’ and a disc lock will help reduce the chances of this happening. Our data shows that a disc lock can make your bike three times less likely to be stolen.
What is the best way to secure a motorcycle?
Use a chain lock through the back wheel (the front wheel can be removed). Secure your bike, with the lock taut to an immovable object such as a ground anchor or street furniture. This will stop thieves from cutting a lock trailing on the ground using an angle grinder.
Can you remove a Disklok?
Don’t lose faith in Clarkson, but a Disklok cannot be “fixed” or removed with a hammer. It simply cannot.
Can you drive with a Disklok?
Once the Disklok is in place, it spins freely around the steering wheel until the reinforced steel arm hits the windscreen or the driver’s knees, making it extremely difficult to drive the car should a thief get it started.
