Merry Christmas to you all!

Location: London

I am wanting to acquire a bike anti-theft nuts and bolts set for my fixed gear bike; the seat / saddle and handlebar are priorities, but I am open to see what one may offer.

Looking to buy between the 5th and 11th of January in London, after which I am flying 🙏

EDIT 1.0: Am quite a beginner; I just heard it was not a bad idea to secure parts on top of having locks and stuff! Feel free to suggest otherwise. Happy to learn!

Cheers,

seatpost: a couple of skewers here: (maybe too complicated to sort out but freeee) https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/401113/#comment17617924

handlebars: to delay component theft you could superglue ball bearings into the hex bolt heads? Bad idea if you like to swap stuff around of course.

Thanks so much! Sent a comment on the post.

Maybe that's the last plan :)

I've heard people say HexLox are easy to ditch out with some tools. Are they really? Some folks recommended PinHead instead I reckon?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
