Hi gang,
Kev here interwebbing you from down under.

I've currently got my 2stroke 66cc Beach Cruiser which I have just got up and running again and am really enjoying it.
I wanted to spend a bit on bike security, so I bought an AXA Defender wheel lock plus the optional chain that plugs into it for around $110AUD all up plus shipping.

I planned to put the wheel lock on the rear wheel inside the frames triangle, and using the chain to lock onto the front wheel as well as around whatever structure is around to like my bike to.
Only downside is my bike has front and rear fenders. I have already taken the front fender off.
Should I cut into my rear fender and try and fit the lock? Or am I better off removing the rear fenders completely? Or leaving it on and buying some other type of lock?
I've heard somewhere (i think lol) that fenders can be dangerous on motorized bikes and should be removed.
Your input would be gladly appreciated before I pull the dremel out and start cutting into the rear fender.
Cheers
Kev
