    I really prefer to have both wheels locked to frame and stand, which makes the Mini Evo just not work with 9 out of 10 stands.

    I've got one too and have resorted to just going around one chain/seat stay and the wheel rim and stand. I've managed to get it round rim+stand+main triangle once or twice but it's fiendishly hard IMO

    Somewhat bizarre use of Lemon Jelly for the soundtrack though...

    D'oh. That would be Air not LJ. Yes, more haste less speed.

    Whoops, rookie mistake putting two https in there. Here's one that works: Special Feature • ABUS Product Testing - YouTube

    I guess I should add that they don't specify the model in the video... it looks very much as if it's the X+54 though...

    Hi all.

    Been reading this thread with considerable interest, as I just bought a new ride and am keen to have it remain mine, as far as I can. Thought the following info could be helpful to anyone trying to make up their mind....

    In case anyone doubted the placement of the Abus Granit X-plus 54 among the heavyweights and thicker diameters here, this makes for interesting watching. Somewhat bizarre use of Lemon Jelly for the soundtrack though...

    nope I don't work for Abus/Hawley etc, though I will disclose having just bought an X+54, so was keen to find some quantified credentials. Took a fair bit of trawling! Of course Mr Angle Grinder can still turn up and crash the party. But then he can crash any party he pleases.
