Hi. I just want to buy kryptonite new york lock but I'm not sure what model fits better, the standard version or long version. I'm thinking to buy one for front wheel and one for rear wheel. Can someone give his/her advice? Thanks a lot.

I bought the long version because I thought it would be easier to hook both the frame and a wheel into the many bike stands around the big apple (manhattan)... but frankly it is a bit too heavy, and I generally can only manage hooking the frame... so if I had to do it all over again I would just get the small version. ALSO I had to use velcro straps to hold it on my frame otherwise it got in the way of my feet when I pedaled ..

My 2012 Chllenger SRT8 is a six speed manual and this pedal cover fit easily. Everyone that said it wouldn't fit the automatic is probably correct. Without actually measuring it, it appears to be a bit larger than the six speed models. That is one thing I didn't mention in my original review. Since then I have seen a couple autos and they do appear larger than the six speed models. Sorry for any hassle or confusion caused by my review. RodsVrod

I've used and owned various Kreg jigs (K2000, K3, K4 and K5). They have gotten better with each new model. An exception to this was the K3 versus the K4. I liked the K3 better than the K4 because of the clamping lever in the front (K3) versus the back (K4). The K2000 also had the lever in the back. It is better to have the clamping lever in the front especially when working with larger work pieces. It is good to see Kreg go back to the front lever. I like the K5 best because of the ratcheting clamp. You don't get a face clamp like you do with the K4MS Jig Master System, but the Automaxx clamps are better anyway. I like the 6" better than the 3" clamp. The right angle clamp works great for assembling cabinets also. If you are going to be doing small work (1/2" or less) get the Micro Drill Guide and large work (11/2" & larger) get the HD Jig. They will fit in the K3,K4, or K5 Jigs. To make a long story short get the K5 Jig over the K4 Jig.

Hello, Have reviews on both models on Amazon. Had a bunch of trouble with the standard model, and no trouble with version 2. The version 2 has a lot more metal parts in the rotor head and tail, and digital tail servo which is much more responsive. Please see both reviews. So far I would say the version 2 is worth the extra money. Good day!

Hi Joseph. I originally bought the 9800500 size chains to use on my PT Cruiser, which has 205-55x16 tires. (A little shorter and wider than yours but pretty similar.) They were really, REALLY tight and a pain in the ass to put on. I recently bought a new set and went one size larger, I think they're 9800600. They are much easier to put on and still fit nice and snug. If I need to replace them again that's what I'll get. And another word of advice for you - I find that these chains work well but you want to be careful to always avoid spinning the wheels. I was trying to climb a steep hill in very icy conditions that were just too much for the chains to cope with. The wheels spun, the car slipped sideways just a few feet and that caused the chain on one wheel to slide off to the inside of the wheel. It got torn up on the suspension, no damage to the car but that's why I bought the new set. Obviously, I like them enough to buy a new set but I'll be more careful with them now and I'd recommend everyone else should be too. Tom

I wish that I had a bigger lock to try for you but all I can do is eyeball it. I have the lock that they suggested. The hole that you have to place it in is large enough...but I am afraid the larger shank might make it awkward to use. Also note on the suggested lock that the shank is a bit longer in proportion to the lock on a standard lock and I believe that is part of it. Think I would buy their lock.

Please? Anybody? If anyone is 5 feet tall or around there and has used this machine or others (418, 431, 438) in this line, please drop a line here and tell me what you think of it? I am particularly interested in what kind of reach it takes to grip the handlebars while striding. Does it bend you forward to reach them or can you do so in relative comfort without straining your back? ANY input is greatly appreciated!!

I tried both of these locks. They don't fit. Anyone have recommendations that work? Love the case, by the way.

Here are the points I will make : 1. Storing this kryptonite U lock will take a bit of thought with bungee cords or such. 2. It is a heavy little thing, about five pounds. 3. It will very likely keep your bike safe, and one cannot say that about most other locks. Other locks have advantages like costing less, weighing less, storing easier, and fitting more posts and racks... but not keeping your bike safe. Final point is that the smaller the U lock the less vulnerable to attack it is, but of course this means there are fewer places that you can lock to. I lost my Trek with a cable lock, bought a better trek and this much better lock..no problems for 2 years in Miami which is one of the many bike theft capitols. I would get this lock and work around the problems that security requires.

See if you can find any McGard paperwork in the trunk or glove box. Originally a number was supplied with the locks in case the key was lost. If no paperwork can be found and you know the previous owners name you may be able to contact McGard to see if they registered the number. All keys are unique and buying this item won't solve your problem. If all else fails I was once able to remove a set of these locks on a used Corvette I bought. You have to find an impact socket that is just slightly smaller than the lock. Size is critical. By using the socket in conjunction with a hand held impact driver I was eventually able to loosenthe locks. Good luck. See if you can find any McGard paperwork in the trunk or glove box.

I have no idea what that means. I assume you are using a translator? Do you mean: "what bar does this work with, standard or Olympic?"If so, this Standard lock... Works with standard bars.

I am a computer dinosaur and afraid to install without the recommended alignment tool. Do you know where to get one from a reliable source that has reasonable pricing so I can buy your safe lock kit and install it properly? Thanks, your help is greatly appreciated.

To jynx 1966... evidently the picture and style numbers did not match. I ordered by style number. I received the wrong part and Amazon credited my account no problem. I have a Karcher style hand held gun is longer. Hope this helps.

I am pretty sure this is the standard US version. I used this to replace my standard deadbolt set. It doesnt replace the handle. I bought an Asian version of the lock for my other door which required a mortise set. Again, this lock is just meant to replace the deadbolt portion of the door. Not the handle. It is not a mortise set. Just a standard deadbolt configuration.

I'm sorry I'm not sure about the fit, but it is not a very portable lock. It is extremely heavy, more front porch use or leaving at the office if riding to work. It is super secure, virtually indestructible. I feel sure it would fit your bike. It is used on a retro Schwinn.

They come in 2 different sizes. You need to measure your grip diameter. Generally sport bikes use the smaller diameter and cruisers use the larger diameter. Norm
