So clefty, are you still using this in addition to your regular lock? It seems like a great idea and I'm very tempted to pick one up for when I lock my bike at Uni
Yep I'm still using mine in addition to my regular lock, our work car park has a bunch of scallys trying to nick bikes at the moment, so I've got a FUG Chain on the rear/frame, a Mini Evo on the spok (with pitlock) and the Xena through the chain ring - if they have a go, hopefully it will make their ears bleed and draw the attention of everyone in the ground floor office, which overlooks the car park.
In town I generally use it with locks as well, but not if its in a decent bike rack - as it gets set off constantly by other bikes etc. I also found it rather useful when I was in Regents park this summer for a picnic and had the bike lent up against a tree with the xena on, some young kid was having a look (non dodgy) and it scared the fuck out of him and alerted me sat 20 yards away with my back to the bike.
