Just got an evolution series 4 and it looks pretty good. I am a bit pissed off that it doesn't fit into my frame though, which will mean I can't use the bracket.
I have seen a few pics and also read advice to put a cable through the front wheel to stop it being stolen - I also lock my bike in a place where I can lock this to a railing along with the u lock.
My question is - is it better to hook this onto the u lock or use a separate padlock. I doubt anybody is going to cut a cable to steal my wheel, but if I use a separate lock I assume they will need an extra pair of cable cutters along with whatever they cut the u lock with in order to walk off with the bike.
Am I right or is it better to use the evolution to secure the cable as the padlock is probably not as strong.
