I've given up on ever recovering my lost Kryponite lock, my guess is somebody threw it into Lake Ontario seeing as Lake Ontario was about a lock's throw from where I left it.
So, here's my ass.
I picked up the smaller Kryptonite so I can keep it in my pocket instead of having to mount it on my frame. If it's not mounted on the frame, I won't have to take it off to photograph my bike in a tree, which so far is the only reason I've ever just lost a lock.
My bike's lost some weight because of it, and my knee has nothing to hit when I take sharp sharp turns way too fast.
Worth it.
