And here' the infamous LPL ruining the jaw blades of his hydraulic bolt cutter on the Brute:

I had one of those locks and got rid of it because it was such a pain to carry around and use that it just stayed at home while I rode my centuries. I gave it to my son who used it on campus, and it rusted internally when he left it out in the weather. After 10 minutes of barely being able to unlock it after dousing it with WD 40 (the key could be made to turn with the application of a lot of force), I threw it away. I didn't trust it not to completely seize up at some point.
