    When the thief cuts the lock, the falling grenade might stub their toe.

    Does it work though…? I don’t see any way that the pin for the grenade comes out when you cut the lock. Am I missing something?

    But the thief is lockpicking lawyer, might actually defuse the grenade as well.

      Afterwards providing a few comments about why the Whipit brand hand grenades are easily defeated. But never quite telling you which brand of hand grenade he would recommend (Grenadables, obvs)

      If my knowledge about grenades from videogames is correct, you can just put a pin back in, if you kept the handle closed since pulling the pin.

    I don’t understand… If you get the lock off of the bike, then you get the lock off the grenade pin, no? What am I missing? Or is the idea that they don’t notice this whole thing and try to ride off and that automatically primes and drops the grenade? Then you still don’t have a bike. I don’t get it. :/

      I’m with you…

      Cut the lock shackle, remove lock from brake and ring… Nothing happens??

      Or if you’re paranoid, cut the grenade ring first, then cut the lock.

    The grenade ring is just like a key ring. Hold spoon, pull pin, twist ring off the lock, re-pin grenade, walk away with your new grenade, and enjoy.

    The weak-willed see a deterrent, while the enterprising see a guaranteed way to get rid of the lock.

      But probably the bike too. This is really the most fun for people who want neither a bike nor a grenade, and also don’t want OTHER people to have either of those things. I can’t remember which logical operation that is, NAND?

      Just wrap tape around it to hold the spoon in place, pull the pin, leave the taped grenade, and take the bike.

            Bike’s worth a few hundred dollars tops at a pawn shop, whereas a grenade can get you a hundred thousand dollars out of the nearest bank.
