    As the title really,

     

    looking for a bike lock that i can carry in a jersey back pocket that will be suitable for cafe stops etc? 

     

    Must be lightweight and relativly compact?

    Although for caliper brakes this would be easily circumventable by just flipping up the little lever on the top of the brake caliper that releases the brakes for you to change a tyre.

    or just snip the brake cable

    – turn it upside down (if it won’t scratch anything)

    Thank you Simon, will have a look, sorry for being lazy and not using the search tool!

    No problem, and a google/duckduck site search probably gets better results.
