Is it worth registering the lock with OnGuard or a waste of time. Richard

Just bought the OnGuard 8001 Brute D lock and it looks a great piece of kit and it appears to be exactly like the Halfords one. Is it recommended to give the internals a good spray with silicone lubricant as I've read many reviews saying their lock had jammed.

I've just been into Halfords and had a look at their D locks and their Advanced lock https://www.halfords.com/cycling/bike-accessories/bike-locks/halfords-advanced-23cm-d-lock-225478.html looks very similar to the Onguard Pitbull. Anyone know if it is and why Halfords rate theirs as Diamond...

Having scoured all the likely sellers I can't see any D lock which will go around my seat tube and the wheel and allow locking to something substantial.

Just about to take delivery of my first ebike. What does everyone recommend for security locks. I'm looking for something which is not too have so can be carried in a backpack. Do you leave the battery attached or take with you? Richard

Bosch Performance Line CX

Kalkhoff, but buying privately.

Without riding is there anyway you can tell the coindition of the battery? It's a Bosch motor and battery.

When buying 2nd hand how can you tell the condition of the battery? How long do they last? The bike I'm looking at is a 2017 model and has done about 3000 miles for commuting. Richard

Have you taken delivery yet? Richard

Has anyone bought from PswPower? If so are the duty and vat all paid true, or is there some hidden costs? Has anyone had any problems or warranty issues with Chinese suppliers? If so how did you get on?
