Any chain that can be carried around, can be relatively easily overcome. The chains that just will not be croppable, are impossible to carry for any length of time.
The only reason the Evo Mini isn't in the list on page one, is because it is hand-bolt-croppable. Though in truth, if there are no gaps inbetween the lock and the bike, its then nearly as secure as even the best and most expensive of locks - because its so difficult to reach.
I have spoken against the Sheldon method of locking, but there was one example that I had seen, that is exceptional, and does work. Note the lack of gaps, and how the lock is positioned.
This is extremely intelligent locking. No gaps, and the weaker side is facing away from the side exposed to the pavement....and obscured by the other bike. Very clever. 10/10 for effort, and forethought.
