So it seems 2 U locks are advised as being more secure than a U and a chain?
I'll hopefully be locking up a much nicer bike than my current beater in a few weeks, outside my work. It's a busy area, but may be a bit less so in the winter when the tourists go away. I currently use an Oxford Magnum with a crappy cable lock. I'll probably continue using the Oxford for a bit, but may upgrade to a Krypto Fahg mini if there is loads too much space around the new frame (going from an old ali MTB to an Audax steel frame) For the secondary locks, I'll probably go for the Krypto Evo Mini or Magnum LK 3103 and one of those cheap padlock alarms from Maplin. I can see the bike from my desk so will be able to shout at anyone fucking with it.
