Good find, pity it's in Yankland, else I would blag myself a couple.

I got a few (4) shipped to a fried in the USA and he sent them over to me and it came out at about 7£ each...

Two things: i have found wrong with them... 1) they are not as easy to place on my bike as I have seen others do.. and 2) which is the big one.. I have not firgured out a way to lock em with out carrying even more bloody keys for pad locks... grrrrr !!!!

I made one of these in Argentina..

Very cheap, sturdy and simple...


One length of sewage pipe or thick drainpipe.
2 x Push on ends.
2 x large jubilee clips for securing the ends onto the pipe.
2 x large jubilee clips for securing the actual tube onto the bike.

Drill a small hole in the pipe or one of the ends to allow the air to escape as you press the end on.

I would be thief would need a screwdriver and the inclination to steal an odd looking piece of drainpipe.. I left mine on the bike throughout South America and never got a glance.

Other things that work a storage tube for welding rods and mortar shell storage tubes.
