Kryptonite Evolution Series 4 Standard Bicycle U-Lock with Bracket (4-Inch x 9-Inch) Kryptonite Evolution Series 4 Standard Bicycle U-Lock with Bracket (4-Inch x 9-Inch)
List Price: $73.99
Sale Price: Too low to display

Big city cyclists need big city protection, as would-be thieves aren't intimidated by flimsy cables or weak U-locks. That's why serious cyclists turn to Kryptonite for their security needs. The Evolution Series 4 U-lock is a cut above other bike locks, with a 14mm hardened Max-Performance steel shackle designed to resist both cutters and leverage attacks. Ideal for anyone who lives in moderate to high crime areas, the Series 4 received a 9 on the Kryptonite 1-12 lock comparison system, which ranks the varying levels of security offered by the company's product range. A lock that ranks 1 on the Kryptonite scale might work if you live in the burbs and have a Rottweiler parked next to your bike or motorcycle. A lock that ranks 12, however, is built for maximum deterrence. The Series 4 also offers such security-enhancing features as a double deadbolt locking mechanism for extensive holding power; a disc-style cylinder with more than one million key variations; a reinforced anti-drill/pull cylinder protection system; and a center key location with a dual overhead cam locking mechanism that defends against leverage attacks. The Series 4 is about more than just security, however, with a sliding dustcover that protects and extends cylinder life, anti-rattle bumpers that reduce noise during transport, and versatile EZ mount transportation bracket. And as a bonus, the lock comes with three keys, one of which is lighted with a high-intensity bulb that makes it easy to unlock the Series 4 after dark. The lock measures 4 by 9 inches. The Legendary Durability of Kryptonite Locks The first big test for Kryptonite locks came in 1972, when Kryptonite founder Michael Zane directed the Second Avenue Bicycle Shop in New York City to lock a three-speed bicycle to a signpost in Greenwich Village. Although thieves immediately stripped all of the bicycle's removable parts, the bicycle itself remained for 30 days and 30 nights. The publicity gave Kryptonite the boost it needed and forever changed the face of bicycle security. Twenty-two years later, Kryptonite returned to the streets of the Big Apple to test its latest innovation, the New York lock. In April 1994, the New York Post laid down the ultimate challenge: Could Kryptonite's New York lock last 48 hours on the toughest streets of New York? In a city where more than 100,000 bikes are stolen each year, Kryptonite and the Post locked a brand new, bright green Univega road bike worth $600 to a parking meter in the East Village--the Bermuda Triangle of New York bicycle thievery. For a full 48 hours, the bike remained locked on the corner of Avenue A and 11th Street. Zane and Neil McDaid, director of product development and design for Kryptonite, watched from around the corner as the bike came under every possible means of assault, stumping thieves at every turn. After 48 hours the bike remained intact except for the gear derailleur, which had been stripped off. The lock showed definite signs of abuse, but it had not failed. The New York lock had met the Post's challenge. Not satisfied with the length of the test, Zane moved the bike to SoHo for another six days and, finally, uptown near the Lincoln Center. Even in these high-theft areas the properly locked bike lasted another three weeks before being pulled off the streets by Zane and McDaid. The Post also ran the New York lock through a battery of street tests using common bike theft tools: a 4-foot bolt cutter, a crowbar, and a hammer. The non-Kryptonite locks cracked in seconds, but all methods failed on the New York lock, even the monstrous bolt cutter, which was rendered useless with large dents in its jaws. About Kryptonite In the early 1970s, Michael Zane was a free-spirited, bearded kid with a VW van and a big idea for a new kind of lock. He traveled thousands of miles showing the unique U-shaped locking device and spreading his passion for bicycle security to bike dealers all around the country and forged lifetime relationships. The company soon expanded its product line to include power sports, hardware, and snow sports security. Through innovative product designs, cutting-edge marketing savvy, legendary customer service, and pure fanaticism for security, Kryptonite grew with a cult-like following. In 2001, the company that was started in a VW van was purchased by industry giant Ingersoll Rand and became a flagship brand in the company's Security Technologies sector. Publications such as Bicycling, Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, US News & World Report, and a host of others continued to tout Kryptonite products as the best on the market. The company's dedication to its customers is best represented by its actions during the fall of 2004, when it was discovered that the industry-standard tubular cylinder could be compromised, at times, with a household item. Kryptonite flew into action, created a voluntary lock exchange program, and replaced more than 400,000 locks in 21 countries for free. In essence, the company redesigned the equivalent of nine years worth of new products in just 10 short months. Kryptonite is the only company in the world that offered such a comprehensive plan to customers, taking its "legendary customer service" pledge to new heights.

Disc Mountain Bike

When it comes to mountain bikes or any bike for that matter, bike pedal parts is one of the most important components that you need. The problem is though that as important as it may be, it's also one of the most misunderstood or greatly ignored parts of a bike. So if you're on the lookout for Mountain bike pedal parts replacement then you're in the right place, as this article will give you all the tips that you'll need in order to get the perfectly suited part for you.

In essence, there are three varying types of pedals that you can choose from. This would include the cage, clip-less and platform. Each type will have different effects on the way that you ride which is why, it's very important that you choose the right one for you.

Clip-less pedals will prove to be your best friend especially if you're more on the "adventure" and "speed" side of things. Clip-less pedals will give you more stability when riding as well as prevent your foot from slipping at the same time. This type of pedal also forces you into a position where you'll be using more of your leg muscles, thereby giving you better workouts.

Cage style pedals on the other hand are not really that common and can be found on some of the cheaper bikes. This is because of the fact that they tend to be a lot cheaper as compared to the other two and can sometimes come in lower quality. Cage style bike pedal parts are generally suited for beginners or individuals who do not really plan on taking out their bikes that much.

The last type of pedal, which is the platform type, is basically the most popular pedal type today. They can provide comfort as well as good overall control under certain situations but are not really suited for faster rides or bumpy terrains.

All in all, in terms of design and size, everything will have to do with how comfortable you are with the mountain bike pedal parts that you are planning to purchase. Depending on the size of your feet, you might want to go with bigger or smaller ones.

By finding the right type of pedal, you'll be able to improve your performance. So if you are planning to purchase bike pedal parts, keep in mind the three types mentioned above, take into consideration which type will suit you best.

Different Types of Mountain Bikes

With mountain biking being a very popular sport,

there are many bikes to choose from. Depending

on what type of riding you like, the style of

bikes you can choose from will vary. Below, you'll

find tips on the different types of bikes available.

1. Cross country

Almost all mountain bikes will fit into this category.

Cross country mountain bikes are light weight, making

them easy to ride over most terrains, even up and

down hills. This is the most common mountain bike

and it can be used with ease for riding on the path

or even commuting.

2. Downhill

These types of bikes are for serious bikers who

crave the ultimate adventure. Downhill bikes have

front and rear suspension, strong parts, and disc

brakes. Rarely available off the shelf, most riders

like to custom build their own.

3. Trials

Trail mountain biking involves a great degree of

skill and is classified as the precision riding of

the sport. Similiar to downhill bikes, trial riders

will often build their own bikes rather than purchase

one off a shelf. Generally very light and very

strong, these bikes require a lot of discipline.

4. Jump and slalom

Slalom and jump bikes are very strong and designed

for jumping, street racing, and slalom. They offer

a front suspension and use very strong components

dedicated to what they do. These bikes are very

popular with the sport of mountain biking.

Even if you are new to mountain biking, the sport can

be a lot of fun. There are several bikes to choose

from, all of which depend on your style. If you are

still looking for the best style for you, all you

have to do is try out several bikes and see which one

suites you the best.

Question about mountain bike disc breaks?

This is my first time owning a mountain bike with disc brakes. My question is. Do I have to loosen anything to remove my front wheel from my bike that has a disc brake ? The tire is equipped with a quick release mechanism. Just want to make sure before I go and end up breaking it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

NO, you do not have to losten or ajust anything on the brake when removing the wheels. However, you do need to put a spacer in between the brake pads (especially with hydraulic brakes) to prevent the pistons from extending and seizing the pads together when there is no disc between them. This situation usally occurs when the brake lever is bumped or (grabbed by somone who didnt know any better) you can use a folded pice of cardboard as a temporary but i reccomend getting a real plastic spacer from a bike shop. not expensive, they should have a few to give away. ask specifically for a "Hayes" spacer because they fit ALL disc brakes and since they push the pistons out a little (on hydraluic brakes) it alows your pistons to re-center each time you do it.

sorry i could talk your ear off on this subject,

just dont forget to remove the spacer when putting the wheel back in and make sure the disc lines up and that the axle is properly seated before locking
