almax best on the market in my eyes and worth the money if it stops your bike from going missing.

Any chain is only ever as good as the lock that holds it! If these guys make locks to match they'd get my vote and custom in a heartbeat. :D

the chain comes with a squire sc65 close shackle lock (I think that's the lock model) , wich the bolt cutters can get to and if you were to cut it you would have to have 2 cuts near perfectly straight to get the 19mm shackle out from the lock.

Must admit there certainly seemed to be more effort going into breaking their competitions locks.
