Fahgettaboudit Lock Holder

So guys, there is an alernative to carrying that massive lump around and here it is !

I was pretty miffed by the weight of the Fahgettaboudit Lock, either in my back pocket or in my bag. The weight was a pain and really anoying.
So i figured i could mount it to the frame using velcro.

I had a look around and could only really find garden velcro ties which weren't up to the job of holding such a heavy (2KG)lock

Thinking what a wonderful bagmaker scot not scott is, he kindly rustled up the velcro straps needed to get it on the go.

I rode home with the lock strapped up, which looked like this.

Pretty impressive eh ?

So the lock would sit flush to the frame i had to remove the key hole cover

Anyway, Scott did warn me it would rattle like a cow bell, and sure enough on the ride home, it did just that. Noisy and anoying as anything.

I did have a plan though to stop this, using silicone and insulation tape

By filling the little hole where the niple of the lock bar goes in, and by insulating the bar as in the picture, it completely stops the rattling.
Check the videos, im not making this up !

before and after - as you can see in the videos below.

Massive thanks to Scott.
