From Amazon a Kryptonite Kryptolock as the weight and bulk of Onguard Pitbull (?) was too much for what little use it got with the ebike.
From Banana Industries a whole lot of spares - a pair of tyres for the ebike, two inner tubes, puncture patch tin, Elite bottle, SPD pedals, brake and derailleur cable sets.

One issue with Kyptonite locks is the frame mount which I find does not last long if of the fabric strap type. Have mine now held on with a hose cllp with plenty of insulation tape wrapped around the appropriate part of the frame. Also keep it lubed. I have had the odd occasion when it would not easily undo leading to people thinking I was trying to steal my own bike.

The frame mount has already been binned as I never use them. I only ever carry a lock in a backpack/pannier and this is the perfect size whereas the Onguard was too big even for the panniers.
