You make a very good point DeadlyFannyPack. And you're right, the OnGuard seems to have it insofar that it needs two cuts to be released, instead of the Krypto's one. But the reason I think the Krypto nicks it is because of the perceived quality. I'm sure you've handled it, and its a very study thing. In fact a few years ago I had a long discussion with a bike shop manager on what was the best bike lock. He was absolutely convinced that it was the Evo Mini. Its actually extremely rare that any of these are cut off bikes, unless the person was unfortunate enough to use it as a sole and main lock. But as a second lock, it has one hell of a reputation. Yes, any and all of these can be cut off with bolt croppers, but its not just the bar that gets attacked - its the whole thing. And as a unit, I feel that there is no stronger lock within this criteria.
I will investigate this as much as I can though, and will certainly be very happy to change it if the OnGuard proves to be the better overall. Fair?
