  • Knucklehead:If you use pitclock on the front instead of a lock thieves can still nick your fork, bars, wheel and brake/s as it’s not locked to anything! Then it’s just a matter of breaking the pitlock at their leisure once away from the scene. It’s more difficult to get a fork out of a frame which is tethered to the wheel/frame with a lock and probably not worth going for the handlebars and levers alone. £35 on a second d-lock is a bit rich IMHO if your first lock is good enough lock to make an opportunist thief think before going for the frame. The Abus Sinus is £20ish.

    my sentiments exactly, a couple of allen bolts and you can easily be away with someone's whole front end.
    my current set-up is: abus steel-flex 1000 thing, and a small and very cheap d-lock for front wheel to frame. also all my vunerable allen key heads are filled with sillicon sealant. not perfect but hopefully act's as an added deterant.
    it's been all of 2 months since they've got away with anything!! (fingers crossed)
