WUPD offers improved bike locks
Margaret BauerAfter receiving alerts from students regarding the compromised security of Kryptonite bike locks, the Washington University Police Department is now offering a supply of upgraded locks to students. Security concerns arose when students found Internet information explaining how to “pick” the KryptoLok. Kyrptonite has since upgraded their locks to a flat key locking mechanism, which is more resistant to “picking.” The new locks are now available through the WUPD “lease/purchase” bike lock program, which allows students to rent bike locks for a deposit of $20. Students who own KryptoLoks outside of the WUPD program can contact Kryptonite to receive a free upgraded bike lock by visiting www.kryptonite.com and filling out the registration form for the Lock Exchange Program.
