3D printed Kryptonite lock mount

[Chris1974]

I have a Kryptonite brake disk lock and it is always the question where to put it. I don't like riding with it in my pocket and I dont want it ratteling on the bike somewhere. So what to do with it? I had an idea for a long time and today I worked it out in the computer and put my 3D printer to work so now I have my first prototype.

 

The Lock:

Take a look and let me know what you think. I will try it out and report here how it holds up.

Interesting, especially i have the same crashbars but no 3D printer and no Crypronite lock but looking for a small lock for the T7.
I have a lock i bought for the CT which i use for both bikes but it's a bit bulky.

I like it.  Very functional and yet hidden away where it should be.  Good job man.

I did a slight redesign and printed it again but now in TPU (flexible material).

 

In case you want to print one yourself, I made the design available here: Clickerdeclick

WELL DONE.

I just watched your short video, that holder is super slick!!!

Sharing your design with people is awesome.

How do you put a youtube video in a post? Cant find it anywhere...

Just go to the video on YouTube and copy the link in the adressbar, then paste it in the post and it will embed itself (maybe you need to put a space or enter after pasting).

I have been riding quite a bit today. Even on some grass / bumps / sand and so far the lock hasn't moved or rattled or anything. Did just wat it was supposed to do!

 

Like it a lot so far!

Hello Chris,

 

Awesome idea, I downloaded the files in the hope I see some measurements but alas.

I have a slightly different lock so maybe the radius is different. Can you give some measurements please?

 

Thanks!

I looked for a lock but the black and orange ones are not ART4 certified en i don't want a bright yellow one.

The inside of the lock is 40mm. The bend radius is 20mm.

Thank you for your reply Chris.

Unfortunately my lock has a different size let’s see if I can alter the design, or I buy another lock ;

No problem. It is not tht difficult to draw in 3D. Good luck!
