...came across this on the Aldi site, available from Thur 18 Feb. 2010.

Security Padlock Alarm £7.99
https://www.aldi.co.uk/uk/media/offers/01_10_week_07/Product_detail_Wk7T32.jpg

Depending on your bike and brake disc could be a backup to your existing security. Plus the alarm feature may or may not be nice to have Wink

Link here.

Thumbs Up

Same for any disc lock, or am I missing something? Rolling Eyes

Plus, depending on how sensitive it is, the 110db alarm might give you a bit of a clue before setting off!

Always park your bike nose in to something and put the disclock just infront of the forkleg. That way you can't just ride straight off you have to back it up first and you won't build up any speed before lock clanks on the forkleg. Or just use one of those yellow reminder leads to the handlebar, they give them out free at all sorts of places.
