My Linka smart bike lock from Kickstarter showed up today. Holy Hell is this thing solid and hefty! Like for reals, this is gonna throw the balance of the bike off :)

I know what you’re thinking. A smart bike lock? Why? Yeah, I know. However, even without the smart gimmicks, this is a nice self-contained bike lock. It mounts directly to the frame, is hella hefty and thick (1.6 pounds), has a built in ‘someone is fucking with me’ alarm (that is quite ear piercing), it’s made of through-hardened steel, has a square cross-section, and it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb when mounted.

Anyway, I’ll edit this post later with thoughts after use.
