The device comprises a separate lock means that can restrain a first and a second rotation link of a bicycle brake in a brake operating state to prevent the rotation thereof. Therefore, even without a separate lock device such as a lock, the lock means can simply operate in a lock mode to make the riding of a bicycle impossible, and thus can prevent the bicycle from being stolen. Also, a user can safely fix and restrain a bicycle through a lock means by carrying only a lock key without carrying a separate big and heavy lock device, and thus more conveniently use the bicycle. In particular, a bicycle can be prevented from being stolen even by use of a tool such as a cutter, and thus achieves an enhanced safety from the bicycle theft.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for or enhancing error recovery procedures in a storage device by utilizing on-the-fly error type detection. After a read error has occurred, a number of read retries are performed through an adaptive read channel in the storage device. The current channel parameters of the adaptive read channel are then compared to a number of predetermined channel parameter sets, each associated with an error type, to determine the most probable type of error that occurred. Finally, an error recovery sequence is selected to recover from the read error based on the determined error type.
