Can anyone recommend a lock that can be carried in a ruck sack that is at least vaguely effective?
Bike will be in a secure shed at work anyway but still rather use a decent lock,..
can you leave the lock in the shed?
I carry an abus granite but it weighs a ton - I carry it for 4 miles hooked over my handlebars and its OK, but I wouldnt want it on my back.
A good shackle lock - I use motorcycle stuff. Look for a hardened steel shackle that both ends lock into the bar, 16mm + thickness. Expect to spend around £100
Abus granit?
Get a BFO lock and leave it in the shed. You'll need another with you or you can't stop on the way to/from work.
I've always found a frame-mounted D-lock to be the easiest to carry.

I always fancied one of these as they seemed a well thought out idea. Dont know how strong they are but you'll be 'down wit kids'
