  • Many thanks. I already have and use a holster - think it came from Restrap - it functions well, with my mini lock but is useless when in full cycling gear. I think initially I place an order for a chain but need sort the length out first.

    Thanks once again.

  • You're welcome. Useful feedback, so thanks to you too. Several people have said when they're out on a proper ride they won't need to lock the bike so a holster/bracket isn't relevant. Keeping our bikes next to us on a cake stop has been OK for us in the past, but it is a restriction for sure.

    We did research an idea suggested by @GA2G, actually, wrt a bracket but couldn't get the dimensions to work on a range of frame sizes. Plastic moulding is tricky due to tooling costs and you need so many adaptors with the variety of tube shapes these days and that compounds the problem, so we've not got any good solutions so far, I'm afraid.

    I'm more than happy to bounce ideas around e.g. if anyone knows another manufacturer that has a strong bracket that will fit an 18mm diameter shackle? (The steel on our DIB locks is 16mm diameter, but there is a rubber cover so the OD is 18mm.)

  • Looking for a new lock myself, but need something I can leave outside on a bike hoop 24/7. Are these waterproof, would they be ok if left outside?

    cheers
