I'm with Deacon. I don't even have doors on the garage, let alone a lock.

Do you have photos of this? I'm having trouble visualizing it. If you're
talking about *reach* adjustment for the lever, I'm not sure that's
possible with the Diacompe levers; but if you mean cable adjustment, the

Can anyone compare the security of the VO ones to the Pitlocks? My
impression from reading about both is that the Pitlocks are pretty much
foolproof, while the VO's are a much simpler design and could be loosened
with, say, vise grips.
I'm thinking of a set of secure skewers myself, and would like
i think the VO ones all take the same simple key. allen with a hole in the

i guess while we are talking about it, how does the pitlock seatpost thing
work with a rivendell seatpost binder, and more importantly, does it work

I could order it from my LBS because they'd get it from Merry Sales. In

Depending on what size you need the SM is really 2 different bikes. The 650b
(47-57cm) is more of a nimble sport touring bike, while the 700c version is
