Trying to buy a disc lock, just as an extra back up (already have the major chain & lock), but want to buy this for when parking at a hotel for my trip across PA next week ( topic15361.html).
Buying Disc Lock, need help for disc break thickness

This Kryptonite unit is working great for me and it is 5mm:

I think 10mm may be to large.

Edit: BTW - I believe the "mm" measurement is the diameter of the pin and not the width of the disc. So the pin cannot be larger than the diameter of the hole it will be going through.

I believe you're right, jetboy. I found on the Xena page that the width of ALL their disc locks are 7mm (1/4").jetboy wrote:Edit: BTW - I believe the "mm" measurement is the diameter of the pin and not the width of the disc.
