In Japan they actually do use those cheap lock just to keep the bike there, not for security at all, since bike theft there are quite low, but the price you pay for that sense of security is the law in Japan are quite different to the British jusitice system, if you're happen to be innocent, you can't appeal or go to court etc. they'd just arrest you and send you to prison.
