    Kryptonite, (along with a few other manufacturers who got caught up in that debacle) no longer use the round keys that were susceptible to the Biro attack. They all use flat keys which are meant to be more secure.

    I've got an Abus Granit for my bike which I'm very happy with, as it goes around most slim poles on the highstreet. Just pay attention to how large the shackle is as some can be very small which makes finding a suitable parking spot difficult.
