    Don't bite my head off, I know these 2 locks are two very different sizes, but I'm still going to ask since my knowledge is rather limited on this subject.

    Essentially I have been told by my live-in landlord that no bikes are to be kept in the house (didn't know this when signing the contract).

    I don't yet have a bike but looking to purchase either a Cinelli Mystic Rat or a custom (obviously) 14 Bike co SS.

    The only locking point I have outside the front of the house (in a little 14x4ft compound) in to a large solid steel ventilation pipe (very securely fitted and concreted in).

    I've been looking at the Abus Granite 54 and the Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit Mini.

    Now I know Kryptonite won't fit around the post but could be used as a second lock. But I'm also not sure if the Abus would reach from the post to the frame (bike has to be running away from the wall not flat/parallel due to space), so I'm kinda stumped and looks like I may have to get a chain type lock for at home.

    Any of you have any ideas/opinions that may help me in this?

    Many thanks in advance,

    Ryan

    Nice looking bike. Matt red and black work well together.

    Afternoon all!

    New guy here from Fulham looking to purchase his first single speed bike...

    Currently torn between a Cinelli Mystic Rat or a custom 14 Bike Co.

    Look forward to reading through the forum.
