I have the ABUS lock on my RadMission and would now like to add the rear rack. It looks like with the lock, there is very little room at the mounts used to attach the rack. Does anyone have both on their bike - do they fit together?
Thanks in advance!
I put one on my new Radmission the same day you asked. When I saw the mounting points, I saw that the rack wasn't a problem but thought I'd have to take the wheel off to remove the fender. I was able to twist the lock past the fender.
I had bought a D lock weighing 27 ounces when I bought my Radrunner. I may have used it twice. It was a hassle to use and didn't seem necessary. A Radrunner doesn't look inviting without motor power, and the rider would be very conspicuous as I've never seen another except on the internet.
The Radmission looks more inviting, and it doesn't stand out like a sore thumb. I use the ABUS even at home in daylight. It's convenient and looks effective. It doesn't look easy to get at with a cutting tool. A thief would have to walk along with the back tire off the ground while steering the front. It's also compatible with the cable I bought with the D lock.
I have so much trouble inserting the key that I might be arrested as an obvious thief with a lock pick resembling a key. I should carry a Radowner's photo ID!
