Sorry dude, but your better off getting a Fabric Horse and tucking that lock onto your hip(ster), if you are motivated by looks....

Why don't you just put it in your bag/pocket/belt holding device™?

or Abus round waist / back.

I personally hate ~~too many~~ any gubbins attached to frames.

Yeah as do I, plus it usually scratches the thing its attached to..:(

there is no way to frame mount a lock that won't ruin the aesthetics.

Locks aren't designed to look good, they're designed to stop your bike getting nicked. Keep your lock round your waist or in your bag, unless you're too fashion conscious to have a bag. Or a waist. :)

I wear mine round my neck. The black cover really sets of my dayglo green jacket....

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
