I paid less than $[...] for this lock on sale and for that kind of money a Kryptonite lock is a great deal. That said, this lock has a couple of shortcomings in my estimation that have to do with the combination wheels. First off, they are generally difficult to turn. They just do not have sufficient knurling to facilitate good thumb/finger traction. Second, the combination wheels are chromed and the indented numbers are filled with black paint. This makes the numbers almost impossible to read under the glare of a street light due to the reflectivity of the chromed surface. Other than those two complaints, I am very happy with this lock, it's solid, compact and yet large enough (barely) to allow me to secure the frame and front wheel to every rack I have encountered without removal of the wheel. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LPHO2Q/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_titleGet more detail about Kryptonite Kryptolok Combo Standard Bicycle U-Lock.
