Introducing Kryptonite’s new angle grinder-resistant New York Diamond Standard Lock.
Protecting investments makes sense, so why not do the same with your bike?

For many of us, a bike goes beyond a mode of transportation. It’s a way to unwind and get away from it all. It’s a way to get to work, to go shopping and travel around. Whether it’s for work or pleasure, bikes allow us the freedom to move.

But thieves have become more resilient, eager to take what doesn’t belong to them. That means different attack methods – even being so bold as to use angle grinders in busy areas in the middle of the day.
That’s where bike security comes into play. And not just any security, protection backed up by a lifetime warranty and five years of free anti-theft protection. The New York Diamond Standard Lock is Kryptonite’s new angle grinder-resistant lock.
With decades of innovation and expertise, the brand understands the unique challenges cyclists face in urban environments. The New York Diamond Standard Lock is the pinnacle of this expertise, offering cyclists a robust angle grinder-resistant solution to deter even the most determined thieves. – Kryptonite
