• Hiplok: A new hipster lock

  IMHO the fact that this is made up of loose links makes it far less likely to cause injury than the "hard cable" design of the Abus locks. I stopped wearing the latter after I gave some thought to the potential injury possibilities but I am going to get a Hiplock (the nice purple one :-)).

  Be interesting to see if I can use my belt holster for my Forgetaboutit U lock on it...

  Thanks...what size is it though? I am after a 90 or 100mm one.

  Sorry I meant threadless stem not oversize. Must have been the drugs.

  Hi

  A response above quite rightly suggests this is a good opportunity to decide what length stem you want. I currently have a large frame Charge Plug and want a shorter stem than the 110 it comes with - 90 ideally.

  Somewhat surprisingly I cannot find any oversize stem in silver for a 25.4mm handlebar anywhere.

  Can anyone help?

  Thanks
