Toll Bag - Locking System

[LuisPaulo]

Hi,

I received a request from a friend to make a tool bag for your bike that have a locking system, to avoid it to be oponed or stolen.

Since I never do something like that, I need some ideas.....

Thanks a lot !!!!

Hi Luis,

Here is my idea for a locking tool bag. Basically two lock hasps and a long bar padlock. You can secure the lock hasps with rivets. I created the drawing to be able to better show you what I am talking about. I hope that this helps you to solve your problem.

Aqui é a minha idéia de uma maleta de ferramentas de bloqueio. Basicamente dois ferrolhos de bloqueio e um cadeado barra longa. Você pode proteger os ferrolhos de bloqueio com rebites. Eu criei o desenho para ser capaz de melhor mostrar o que eu estou falando. Espero que isso ajude você a resolver seu problema.

Boa Sorte! Good Luck!'

Hi Luis Paulo,

Another guy from Brasil. GREAT!

I´m thinking about one tool box for my bike, and I found the same problem. Storm gave us a great sugestion for the lock system, but I´m figure out another problem and another solution.

Ok, with this system, you'll lock the bag, but one problem stills, the leather straps that hold the bag on the bike. Some stupid always can cut the straps...

I find this solution:you change the leather straps for some clamps and bolts. Here is the link: http://xlforum.net/vbportal/forums/showthread.php?t=71367&highlight=tool+bag+clamps. .

Feel free to add me in your MSN: amaral_x@hotmail.com.

Storm: Great to know that you know portuguese. Where are you from?
