Much as I love the straightforward delivery of the LPL, I don't know how many bike thieves out there are qualified lockpicks, or are toting around a Ramset. Ever used a Ramset? I don't think anyone is stealing a bike off of the corner with one-- it sounds like a handgun going off, because it's basically a handgun going off. I have a .25cal driver and it's gunshot loud, as one would expect.
