@dakin @swedeee: I have Atomic22 security bolts on my Brooklyn too. I have the stem faceplate, topcap, seatpost and saddle secured. It costs about £150 for that set up which is totally worth it for the peace of mind. I still lock up both wheels and frame but I don't have to worry about my components going missing.

Man, I love them small V2s. Something about that geo just does it!

Good prices! Great set up.

+1 for Concor or Flite.

I've used them both, they both look good on the G. I'm sticking with the Flite for now.

Bike looks lovely mate.

You get V1 or painted the V2?

V1 mate! Joss now has the V2 back.

Just took me about 5 mins to remember his fucking username and I can't mention him. -@NurseHolliday

@|³|MA3K no?

what were you riding dude?

Black Brooklyn with fluro orange forks. You'd just passed the roundabout as I was pulling onto Englefield Road.

Somewhat surprisingly, I don't usually spot anybody on this route however I was running late this morning.

(I was going the opposite way.)

@jonny, I think I may have passed you this morning on Englefield Road.

Ok so I'm coming round to the idea of the Sansa clip. What do you guys personally recommend, the Clip+ or Clip Zip/Sport?

Okie dokie. Thanks for the response.

Hey! Good to see you guys.

@Velocio is it possible to have album pictures reinstated? Perhaps if only on a request basis for the time being?

For example, it'd be great to have this one back for the sake of posterity.

The new one isn´t the Messenger Mini but the Evolution LITE Mini-6

Ah, OK. So they've a few new ones coming out.

For my own benefit, here's a comparison of the three:

Kryptonite Evolution Mini-5 (the one we know and love):

• 13mm hardened MAX-Performance steel shackle resists bolt cutters and leverage attacks
  
• Product dimensions: 3.25” x 5.5” (8.3cm x 14cm)
  
• Product weight: 2.15 lbs (0.98 kgs)
  

Kryptonite Messenger Mini (new):

• 11mm hardened MAX-Performance steel shackle provides lighter weight lock while maintaining the security level of Evolution Minis
  
• Increased shackle dimensions allows for a wider range of lock up scenarios
  
• Product dimensions: 3.75” x 6.5” (9.5cm x 16.5cm)
  
• Product weight: 1.83lbs (0.83 kgs)
  

Kryptonite Evolution LITE Mini-6 (new):

• 11mm hardened New MAX-Performance steel shackle material allows reduction of shackle diameter while maintaining the performance standards of the Evolution Mini-5, Mini-7 & Mini-9
  
• Kryptonite's lightest weight U-lock option at 747 grams (1.65 lbs)-16% lighter than the Evolution Mini-5
  
• Product dimensions: 2.75" x 6" (7cm x 15.2cm)
  
• Product weight: 1.65 lbs (.74 kgs)
  

The actual park? It's OK, it's just annoying when you get to the other side and the gate's locked and you have to turn back.

I usually cycle up the very west side, skatepark on the right, then take a left over the bridge; the yoofs were a bit shouty last night.

anywhere dark

...

Two examples of badly lit spaces and I'm sure that is a key factor in an unsafe area.

That reminds me, now that the evenings are drawing in I fancy finding an alternative route home to avoid Viccy Park.

It does; rear bridge and drilled for brakes front and back.

Finsbury Park is pretty ghetto on a dark evening.

Is another Brooklyn ride in order?

What dates are good?

I'm currently chilling in Krasnostav (111 030) if anyone fancies making their way up to meet sometime this week.

@chrisbmx116, maybe you're near?

For what it's worth, I think it's a nice addition to the lineup but I hope the Messenger Mini doesn't replace the Evo Mini 5. I don't want an overall longer, wider lock as my secondary - despite the weight reduction.

Guys have you see the new krypto mini? Thinner (same security level, from 13mm to 11mm, thanks to a stronger material), wider, and with an extension for the wheel.

I can't watch the video at the moment but I presume you're saying the Kryptonite "Evolution Mini-5" is being replaced by the Kryptonite "Messenger Mini"? Interesting.

The specs below highlight the differences:

Kryptonite Evolution Mini-5 (the one we know and love):

• 13mm hardened MAX-Performance steel shackle resists bolt cutters and leverage attacks
  
• Product dimensions: 3.25” x 5.5” (8.3cm x 14cm)
  
• Product weight: 2.15 lbs (0.98 kgs)
  

Kryptonite Messenger Mini (the new one):

• 11mm hardened MAX-Performance steel shackle provides lighter weight lock while maintaining the security level of Evolution Minis
  
• Increased shackle dimensions allows for a wider range of lock up scenarios
  
• Product dims: 3.75” x 6.5” (9.5cm x 16.5cm)
  
• Product weight: 1.83lbs (0.83 kgs)
  

Easy! That was me, @pops, @spotter and @Ecunard. Nice day for a ride, eh?

Sorry for the lack of skids.. You got a small one out of @spotter after you passed.

Will try and snap some more recent photos this week or next.
