Often I feel quite silly being so careful with it, but probably not as silly as any thief would feel if they had to take their time trying to steal it.

I use them to secure the front and rear wheels and the saddle, which means I don't have to use two locks and take off the saddle when I lock the bike. I usually just lock the frame to something solid (with a kryptonite). http://www.pitlock.com http://www.londonfieldscycles.co.uk/index.shtml?page=1 I’m suprised nobody has mentioned pitlocks in this thread.

Its very time consuming locking and unlocking your bike, taking lights on and off etc. Surely someone can come up with something a bit more convenient? It can’t be technologically impossible! Imagine if every fucking m******t had to take his off his lights, empty his boot, lock his seats in, lock up all his wheels, everytime he parked his car! Don’t anyone else get fed up with all this?

Generally a cheapish chain or cable lock. A New York lock will split your wonderful carbon frame and the thief can run off with 200 to 300 pounds worth of Shimano or Campy gear.

The video says get a chunky chain lock, and then shows a very long slender looking lock wrapped around both wheels and the frame. What do you recommend for the second lock and where to buy at a good price? thanks C Informative again.
