    Ottolock Bike Lock Cut in 2 Seconds Flat!

    Ooof. I’ve been skeptical of these lightweight, zip-tie looking locks but this is bad. No special tools or techniques needed.

    I Told You Aluminum Bikes Were Still Cool

    During my wet and windy ride over the weekend I stopped for water and a guy I passed a little ways back stopped to do the same. “I really need to upgrade to carbon” he said, I think implying the difference between my carbon bike and his alloy rig explained the difference in speed. Wrong.…
