The detail is impressive. Not just the lock, the cables as well.

It's called yarn bombing. Big in Blackpool due to some friends of mine, I'll see if I can find the monster parking meter covers

Yarn bombing, I'd never heard of that, although there's a tree in the park only a few yards away from that bike that's been done and I've seen a small section of fence railings in Bridgnorth done like it as well.

Locks, cable ; very good; but lack of mudguards alas make it unsuitable for the British climate...

Will they shrink if they get wet, park up a 29er and come back out to a 26er?
