• If it has to be one of the other, test ride them both. If you're used to the lightness of the Fuji track then I'm adamant you'll prefer the Langster steel.

    A bike's "stealability" doesn't depend the bike itself, but rather the locks used and method of locking. In short, crap lock+ crap method of locking = a very "stealable" bike, regardless of how inconspicuous it is.

    Bright colourful bikes like the ones in question may appear more attractive to the thief and are more likely to be eyed up by them, but ultimately it's those two criteria that they will analyse above all else.

    Like GA2G said, have a read around the forum. There's a lot of useful info here that will hopefully prevent any repeat incidents in the future!

    Thanks all. First bike stolen was definitely a case of crap lock/bad location/looking the wrong way for 10 mins. Second was a case of my flat being burgled. Will definitely be re-evaluating both bike and flat locking strategies, and my OTP options. Finding the forum enormously helpful,

    C.
