    O man that's crazy. Then again it is New York though. Interesting to see someone do that kind of experiment somewhere in the OC or other local mtb spots.

    I thought at first, during the intro with the guy walking with the bolt cutters, that this was a clip of actual thieves stealing bikes. I was starting to get pretty pissed, but was glad it was just a test using their own bikes.

    Here's the deal. He didn't look like he was doing anything wrong. I mean, what kind of person would do something like that in broad daylight, right in front of everybody? The bystanders probably thought he lost his key and was just trying to unlock his own bike. Maybe I feel this way because I knew it was only a test. It would be interesting to see the clip when you didn't know this.

    They can usually steal a bike in less time then he took.

    the chain he was useing i very wimpy,i use a case hardened chain with 1/4in. dia links. it took brand new bolt cutters 48in. tall about 10min. to cut it.then i've got master locks disk and i think the heaviest lock with a huge shackle. the cutters they had in the vids. wont cut what ive got .so it comes down to the biggest sh!t wins!!
