Big city riders need big city protection, as would-be thieves
aren't intimidated by just any lock. Enter the Kryptonite New
York 1210, a high-security lock with an innovative oval crossbar
disc build designed to defeat thieves' toughest attacks. The New
York 1210 is equipped with a 12mm, six-sided chain made of 3t
hardened manganese steel for maximum strength. The chain is tough
and intimidating, with a durable protective nylon cover that
includes hook 'n' loop fasteners to hold it in place. The New
York 1210 also includes the Evolution Series 4 disc lock and 14mm
Max-Performance steel shackle. The lock's high-security
disc-style cylinder--which offers more than one million key
variations--boasts a patented, oval-hardened steel crossbar for
extra security.
The New York 1210 offers such additional security-enhancing
features as hardened double-deadbolt locking for extensive
holding power, a reinforced anti-drill/pull cylinder protection
system, a sliding dust cover that protects and extends the
cylinder life, and three keys--one of them lit with a
high-intensity bulb and replaceable battery. Ideal for anyone who
lives in moderately high crime areas, the New York 1210 boasts a
10 ranking on the Kryptonite 1-12 comparison system, which ranks
the varying levels of security within the company's product
range. A lock that ranks 1 on the Kryptonite scale might work if
you live in the burbs and have a Rottweiler parked next to your
bike or motorcycle. However, city dwellers demand extreme
protection, which is why the New York LS is built for serious
deterrent security.
The Legendary Durability of Kryptonite Locks
The first big test for Kryptonite locks came in 1972, when
Kryptonite founder Michael Zane directed the Second Avenue
Bicycle Shop in New York City to lock a three-speed bicycle to a
signpost in Greenwich Village. Although thieves immediately
stripped all of the bicycle's removable parts, the bicycle itself
remained for 30 days and 30 nights. The Kryptonite lock and the
bike frame were still in place, even though the lock had been
attacked numerous times. The publicity gave Kryptonite the boost
it needed and forever changed the face of bicycle security.
Twenty-two years later, Kryptonite returned to the streets of
the Big Apple to test its latest innovation, the New York lock.
In April 1994, the New York Post laid down the ultimate
challenge: Could Kryptonite's New York lock last 48 hours on the
toughest streets of New York? In a city where more than 100,000
bikes are stolen each year, Kryptonite and the Post locked a
brand-new, bright green Univega road bike worth $600 to a parking
meter in the East Village--the Bermuda Triangle of New York
bicycle thievery. For a full 48 hours, the bike remained locked
on the corner of Avenue A and 11th Street. Zane and Neil McDaid,
director of product development and design for Kryptonite,
watched from around the corner as the bike came under every
possible means of assault, stumping thieves at every turn. After
48 hours the bike remained intact except for the gear derailleur,
which had been stripped off. The lock showed definite signs of
abuse, but it had not failed. The New York lock had met the
Post's challenge.
Not satisfied with the length of the test, Zane moved the bike
to SoHo for another six days and, finally, uptown near the
Lincoln Center. Even in these high-theft areas the properly
locked bike lasted another three weeks before being pulled off
the streets by Zane and McDaid. The Post also ran the New York
lock through a battery of street tests using common bike theft
tools: a 4-foot bolt cutter, a crowbar, and a hammer. The
non-Kryptonite locks cracked in seconds, but all methods failed
on the New York lock, even the monstrous bolt cutter, which was
rendered useless with large dents in its jaws.
About Kryptonite
In the early 1970s, Michael Zane was a free-spirited, bearded
kid with a VW van and a big idea for a new kind of lock. He
traveled thousands of miles showing the unique U-shaped locking
device and spreading his passion for bicycle security to bike
dealers all around the country and forged lifetime relationships.
The company soon expanded its product line to include power
sports, hardware, and snow sports security. Through innovative
product designs, cutting-edge marketing savvy, legendary customer
service, and pure fanaticism for security, Kryptonite grew with a
cult-like following. In 2001, the company that was started in a
VW van was purchased by industry giant Ingersoll Rand and became
a ship brand in the company's Security Technologies sector.
Publications such as Bicycling, Fortune, The Wall Street Journal,
US News & World Report, and a host of others continued to tout
Kryptonite products as the best on the market.
The company's dedication to its customers is best represented by
its actions during the fall of 2004, when it was discovered that
the industry-standard tubular cylinder could be compromised, at
times, with a household item. Kryptonite flew into action,
created a voluntary lock exchange program, and replaced more than
400,000 locks in 21 countries for free. In essence, the company
redesigned the equivalent of nine years worth of new products in
just 10 short months. Kryptonite is the only company in the world
that offered such a comprehensive plan to customers, taking its
"legendary customer service" pledge to new heights.
