There's a crossover because these things can't really be separated. GA2G has basically created a rival list to Sold Secure.
As you say the locks aren't submitted, but selected, that's another reason to question Sold Secure. Why leave off the Fagh Mini? That's not an update, that's a regression. I realise that the insurers only accept Sold Secure Gold/Silver, that's the problem.

That's brilliant! You can't even buy the Mini alternative in the UK! Fantastic.

As others say, the Kryptonite "guarantee" is rather tough to comply with. Anyone know a successful claimant? Also, I'm not so keen on buying a new Kryptonite every year to qualify, though I suppose that at £50 for the Fagh Mini (amazon.co.uk) it would be cheaper than independent insurance. Certainly not as comprehensive. Do Kryptonite guarantee parts/accessories, accidental damage, will they pay for my taxi home, do they offer medical insurance or legal fees insurance? ... The policy that LCC recommend covers things like these.
Nice to have 3rd party cover though! Thanks LCC.

Can anyone confirm this? I'll try looking up their exact terms (if anyone has a copy, please do send it).
Perhaps the Series 2 Mini will turn out to be a good replacement for the Evo Mini, or perhaps Sold Secure will add the Fagh Mini at some later date. Until then, I'm swallowing the weight and going overkill: Fagh Mini + NY Standard. I'll do my best to fill the gaps.
