This is one of the best threads ever. The line I draw is whether a lock or chain can be hand-cropped or whether it requires an angle-grinder, hydraulic cutter, or torch. Once an angle grinder or torch is pulled out, it's game over.
It looks like 16mm chain is clearly uncroppable. Does anyone have actual data on 14 and 15mm chains like the ABUS 14KS and the Kryptonite 15mm chain? I have not seen any actual reviews or videos of these chains being cropped.
