People have asked me
about my personal take on the RoadLoK®
MID Arachnid® S2
and RoadLoK® MID Sniper® HD1 or
any other permanently mounted brake lock.
The RoadLoK® is
a good idea. It's quality (from what we have seen thus
far) is good but, for a medium level security device, it is
way overpriced.
For the $260.00 to $399.00 cost you can purchase
high level chains or a
good
alarm system with pager. Essentially, the RoadLoK® performs as a
well designed and expensive disc lock. The bike is
immobilized when the pin is engaged. However, RoadLoK® does not
prevent the bike from being lifted.
Buy a RoadLoK®
if you feel the permanently mounted integrated lock feature is a
plus and money is not an issue.
Don't buy a RoadLoK®
if you think this is the absolute best security money can buy.
Disc locks like
Xena
(alarmed), Oxford
Omega or Luma
Xmart
(foot peg / disc lock) will give you the exact same
security level for less. Not to mention the fact that,
when you change bikes, you keep your lock.
