(1725) Rodney's Kryptonite Evolution

In video #1725 I took Rodney's new Kryptonite evolution bicycle lock, which he had had trouble opening with his new Sparrows disc detainer lock, and go through my "process". Yes, I had a couple of common problems aligning the tool, but left it in the video so you could learn from my mistake and see how to quickly fix it.Not a "perfect" video, but few are...
In this video I mentioned there might be some differences between an earlier kryptonite I opened with a prototype tool in video 1465. In reviewing the older video the exterior appears identical to this one.

LOL, you're a BOLD man Bill. Not many would modify & GRIND away on a ... million dollar tool.

[@ShapezPuller64]

Straight up? How expensive are these picks - I didn't think they'd be super wild

[@rhamph]

@@ShapezPuller64 Sparrow sold out of them and their webstore doesn't have a flag for "out of stock" so their bodge is to mark them as a million dollars instead.

According to sparrows, they have parts for a bunch more but can't get them finished atm because Covid1984.

[@Lyme_lyte]

I was considering buying this lock. Now I think I will definitely get it.

[@kevinhiggenbottom8339]

Can I get this lock on eBay and how long is it and how much is it

[@billhenderson731]

Agree with Insoft, I first thought that the disc edges has been rounded so the pick tip would slip. At least manufacturers are upping their game a bit. 👍

Why am I watching this at 5:20 am, I know, I’m addicted to these vids.

[@penfold7800]

Yeah, I have this lock. The keyway protector thing comes off with two standard Allen screws, that should give you more room. I noticed that mine is fussy with the key, so I'm guessing that the tolerances are quite tight and the core binds up well if you don't have the key inserted exactly right. I don't think it's as secure as my abloys, but I'm confident it's okay to lock up my bike with it. I think that there's 7 disks in it plus a non-acting disk at the front and another one at the back, so sort of 9 disks all together.

[@DonzLockz]

Great info Bill, I think Kryptonite are watching your videos and making them better.✌😎

[@joeemenaker]

I love how, when you're trying to find out how secure a given lock is, you can just search for its name on Bill's channel and just look at how long the video is. Video is 2m12s: don't bother. Video is 11m45s: that's a pretty decent lock. :)

[@billnormand7470]

Thanks for all the small details you provide during your demonstration. It truly helps while practicing. 👍

[@danielhildebrand6892]

Looking forward to getting my Praxis Dangerfield pick kit Monday.

[@insoft_uk]

Seems like the perfect lock to practice on, pick that one guess the others will feel so easy. I bet these companies are working hard on trying to make the disc dam hard to grip onto perhaps they will start to bevel or round off the corners of the discs in future

[@penfold7800]

That's an excellent idea!

[@proberts34]

Agreed. And I'm wondering if using inconsistent spacing between the disc would provide additional pick resistance, unless there's some law of the universe which requires consistent spacing.

[@dodgydruid]

I gave one of my clear practice padlocks and a set of them accompanying picks to my daughter's friend and he is such a natural, spent half a morning with them and he's popping Yale door locks, padlocks, my car's door locks then I had to explain to him he couldn't be walking the streets with the picks as under UK law that is going equipped, nice to see someone take something and really learn from it a new skillset :)

[@999wilf999]

That was an 8/10 lock! Points to Kryptonite for using an honest rating system. Compare it to a Master M5, that Masterlock rate a 9/10!

[@GR3G0]

You made a wise choice! thank you for all the info and have a happy retirement!!!!

[@novo1178]

Wow, they are trying to trick us with tighter disc placement? Great review as always , Thanks Bill!!!

[@Mr.Unacceptable]

Looks like rounding the disks and varying the thickness of shims and disks could make this a lot more difficult.

[@bradw0535]

Seems like a pretty tough lock, I can see why it gave Rodney some issues, thanks Bill!

[@loganslocks]

Great Video, I liked how you described the lock!!!

[@haoss69]

Top tip from a biker. Buy a good lock that is not on sale in your country .

[@penfold7800]

Obscurity does work sometimes, so long as it's actually secure, and not just looks like it might be.

[@saschaschneider6355]

Also use at least two different locks of a different type. Most bike thieves are specialised on a certain type of lock and will leave bikes alone that have different locks. And even if they cut them loose having two locks or more means twice the time effort, meaning they might move on to a different bike with a single lock only. You don't need your bike to be super secure, just more secure than others

[@X3RUBIM]

Thumbs up for that. Really good idea!

[@corail53]

@@saschaschneider6355 Most bike thieves don't pick locks. They brute force there way in and with stolen/cheap cordless grinders they are done in less that 30 seconds.

[@saschaschneider6355]

@@corail53 how does that relate to my advice to use two different locks of a different type? I don't see the connection

[@PraveenKumar-cj4mu]

What a song. I love it. If I don't open this lock will you still call me Bosnian Bill

[@barrandilltanathlas1177]

Love the opening credits.

[@chapel976]

my favorite lock.

[@sarumdragon1283]

Looks like some of the manufactureres are watching locksport vids to see how their locks aee defeated and then upgrading them

[@alanp3334]

The smart ones are!

@Bosnianbill. Thanks for another educational video. Hope you and your family stay safe and well. Have a happy Father's Day.

I. Have an old kryptonite bike lock (dunno which model) but it has retractable cover on the keyway that opens when a key is inserted is there any way to reliably open this so I can A see into the keyway and B get a pick tension wrench in?

Don't forget you need TWO locks, one for each wheel.
