Hi all, I want to fit a disc lock to my fat bob, not an alarmed one cos I've heard bad reports of them being to sensitive and going off all the time which pisses off your neighbours!
The
I like the look of the Zena range but they seem to be difficult to get hold of?
So what would you guys recommend as an alternative

Thanks - Mike

 

My Xena with the alarm is not too sensitive. If it goes off, somebody moved it.
Could be louder, though. Xena makes disc locks without alarms also.

I see a lot of plain aftermarket ones at swap meets, on the parts counter at the dealers, etc. The ones I see most often look like little grenades.

 

Whichever one you go with, be sure that it includes the reminder cord- so you don't forget about the lock and go riding off. I think most of the locks come with those.


Also- "Mandatory" warning that a professional thief is going to get your bike no matter how well you try and secure it.

 

I've used the Xena XX-14 on my FB for quite some time, often without the alarm activated (leave batt out), purchased from Amaz. I carry it in my swingarm bag as it's too bulky to fit into a pocket. Hope that helps.

Thanks guys I keep trying to find an Xena lock then

I have a XENA stainless steel lock with alarm,helps if you forget to remove it and goes off only if you move the bike or emits a beep if the batteries are dying!

 

I have an older Kryptonite disc lock. Does the job it is intended for. No tether so is easy to forget about, at least for the first 3 inches of riding.

 

Mike, go take a look here.

I own one and the quality is mighty fine. Obviously the price is right too.

I would recommend put one of these on your rear wheel disc. It is harder to remove the rear wheel vs the front.

 

I would be the person that forgets and trys to take off without removing it
