yup. they have replaced these inferior tubular locks with chicago ace 2 tubular locks. the have different springs, serrated pins and some even have mushroom pins. Also, the have added new padlocks with disc detainer locking mechanisms. very pick resistant depending on tools and picker.
I use a NEW krytonite evolution mini ls (security rating 9/12) AND a NEW new york fahgeddaboudit lock (security rating 12/12) that i use in tandem with a cable to secure the front tire. Granted, the two locks weigh about 6 lbs, but its worth it to lock up my $1600 trek portland. I'd like to see someone use a bic pen on my locks...
Kryptonite has recalled all of the locks using the barrel keys and replaced them with a new key type (see Abloy locks and disc locks) which is not subject to the bic pen attack.
I'd like to point out that this is my video (Captaincropper). Feel free to spread the word though, these locks are pretty much off the market in the UK now because of internet vids.

Putting the real key inside the bic pen eh? very clever.... The sound when you put the pen down gave it away.....

Thats fkin cool!
Is that just a plastic tube the same diameter as the key is? You just put it in as normal and it works?
If so, what is the point of all them nothces and grooves on the keys, do they not actually do anything?
