Do those kryptonite locks not work anymore? Are there tools now that break them? I've never had a problem with them. There's enough room in the bigger ones that you can even detach your front wheel, and include it in the lock.

From what I read Most of them can be easily defeated, but I haven't tried so I cant verify the truth of it.

Locks like this is what you see on most stripped bikes, i dont know if it has to be kryptonite regular master lock like this for $15 bucks from target is pretty darn strong too. I suspect there might be a master key though that some people have.
