new ride

Blue Fuji, used, with new U-lock ready to rock and roll.

bike lock

Vying for a better deal, I perused amazon for a high-quality bicycle lock for my upcoming investment in pedal power. I tried sorting the results in decending price order to see what people were paying top dollar for, and I got some interesting results.
The first 14 results, to be exact, were decidedly not bike locks.

I can see how a trunk-mounted bicycle rack could be useful if I owned an automobile, but I can't understand the correlation between a $50 u-lock and $1700 go-kart.
The folding bicycle looks handy, but the Inspector Gadget look is slightly out of my price range.
