those Abus Bordo locks are not as big/user friendly as they look
Indeed.
They are quite popular here in Berlin - and whenever I ride a friends bike that has one of these I am reminded how 'annoying' they are. Maybe you get used to them but I don't see the advantage over D-locks.
Yeah I think I prefer the d locks too, was a lot more intrigued by the disc brake mounted alarm, but having watched a few vids on YouTube if can’t see how they would work on a Bullitt or similar, they’re way too light, wind would set the alarms off
