parked overnight in the courtyard of a gated block of flats. The Abus was securing the frame and rear wheel to a proper bike park thing in the ground. Evo was locking the front wheel. They masked the CCTV and all I found in the morning was the Abus lock in a hedge, whole bike was gone. It looks like the locking mechanism was dismantled somehow rather than the steel cable being cut through. I've since discovered this lock is no longer recommended, so maybe there is a known weakness there. They probably did their research after scoping it out for a while. The Evo was never found so I don't know how they broke it.
