The Mini U-lock is small and tough. It is the perfect lock for around town, where posts and bike racks are plentiful. My preferred method of locking is around the rear rim, inside the rear triangle of the bike, to the post or rack. This way, both my rear wheel AND my frame are secure. For added security, a cable lock can be used to make the front wheel doesn't run away. This lock works best on bikes with skinny tires, though it has certainly done well on mountain bikes, too. Minimal space is left between the bike and the rack, so there's not much room for tampering with this lock.
Secure it to your frame with the included lock bracket when not in use; it also fits in most back pockets and all messenger bags. A great purchase for city riders!
