@ Monsta - are you going to be leaving your lock(s) at work, or taking back and forward? If you are going to leave the lock(s) there over night and at weekend d-locks would be better than chains as they are less likely to get in the way and draw attention from the council etc. If I was going to leave my bike unattended all day in soho I think I'd go for:
a really good d-lock attached to a wheel / frame / bike rack
a good d-lock attached to the other wheel / frame
a mid-range / good lock attached to the frame / bike rack
with 3 locks done like that it probably won't be worth the scumbags time to steal it as there will always be an easier option around. also if locked like that correctly the bike won't get partly knocked over or bashed around.
