Could help with the casual thief or to keep people from moving your bike around. Someone buy it and let us know how it works. :teeth

Selling for $45.00 . It doesn't seem like a bad idea.

If I was a thief, I'd unscrew/bolt the lever and ride without. Or hit it with a hammer and break the lever. No front brake? Downshift or use the rear brake. No clutch? Don't need it.

Doesn't sound efffective to me. As a deterrent sure, but I wouldn't pay $45 for a deterrent. UNLESS you have ASVs or CRGs. Then it might work.

EDUT: Buuut I could be wrong. After reading more it's supposed to be able to stop you from twisting the throttle. No idea how since the throttle tube is independent of the bar...

Just got in the mail two of the Grip Locks that webBikeWorld was selling. Install takes no time at all. And with the Grip Lock attached to the bar, the throttle can barely be turned and of course the front brake lever does not engage.

I have a good insurance policy, but if $45 keeps 1 more person away; then it saved me a $200 deductible.

Can you post a pic of it?
