Almax have cut pretty much everything. They have some very good bolt cutters which are absolutely huge. I dont think your typical bike thief would go round with the ones Almax use, which tbh could pobably cut through a kryponite u lock too!
Their chain is over £70. For £24 I am very happy with my Abus chain. Mine is the 10mm thick linked one which is a compromise between weight and security.
The disc lock doesn't go round top tube but the high quality chain does that job while the disc lock acts to prevent a weak point (a padlock would be a weak point) and it also goes round my rear wheel to prevent the thief riding it off if they do cut the chain.
