Thanks for writing these lists, i don't even own a SS of Fixed Gear bike anymore, but these lock details are very useful for us commuters.
I just purchased a Magnum 3103 for 16 quid off ebay to carry about. I leave a 16mm lock at work. I can confirm the metal shackle is 13mm in diameter and it weighs about 800-900g. It appears to be very similar (identical?) to the OnGuard style locks. I looked at the Abus 40/401 but couldn't see much advantage. Ideally i wanted a 16mm mini lock but couldn't find one (most seem to be 16mm across the rubber outer).

I saw this too. People carrier (looked to be a minicab but not sure) U-turned without indicating and hit a rider passing on the right hand side. The bike was under the front wheel. It was definitely a man. Looked to be ok, but rightly quite angry. Lots of people helped, ambulance/police arrived, witness gave statements etc.
