  1. When I was in Japan last month, I hung out with someone who
    rides a bicycle almost everywhere. She has a comfort bike
    (all Shimano of course) and it has 2 cool built-in keylocks.
    One is on the headset and locks the shaft so the front wheel
    cannot be turned. I would like to know what that type of
    lock is called, and if its possible to retrofit these types
    of locks on a frame. I didn't actually see the second lock -
    she just referred to it when I commented on the headset lock
    (we were crossing the street at the time). I would think
    that built-in locking schemes would be effective.
