  • Whereabouts in Bournemouth has this happened to you? Interested to know because I've never had a problem here.

  • The biggest deterrent is clearly the threatening sticker on the DT

    Yeah I've wondered whether it's in fact more of an incentive, but so far no-one has taken me up on my offer.

  • Here you go. At my work this morning. It's a semi secure basement but a big building with deliverys and workmen coming in and out all day. Nice combo lock for a 5-6k bike.

  • oops can someone put that in the right thread then.

  • This is how I lock up. Excellent deterrant for the thief of diminutive stature. Apologies for hipstermatic photo - not my work

  • I go for the standard mini evo and fahg combo.

    Sorry, haven't been on this thread for a while, mostly at the uni but I've seen a couple in town and by the station as well.

  • Read an interesting thought on securing parts to a bike this morning, similar to the bb trick.
    However, for say, in the crank arm, melting a bunch of solder in there and then just heating and sucking it out when you need to? For say on Omniums.

    Thoughts?

  • you can melt solder with a lighter so it's an awful lot easier to get out than the bb/superglue approach.

  • Perfect response. Thanks. Superglue it is.

  • haha wish i was tall enough to do this in berlin

  • Shame it's locked so as to jut out at the entrance to some stairs.

  • well there was nothing more solid than tht around 20 bikes locked arnd

  • shame that, that expensive aero fork has a million spacers pilled on top of it.

  • a new line in organic theft prevention devices?

  • It's all good I didn't really like my bike anyway.

  • is the bee bike yours? The pic turned up in my twitter feed somehow.

    I actually know someone who wants a swarm of bees (they have got an empty hive for honey making). It's easy to get folks to come and take the bees away, apparently swarms are quite the commodity.

  • Tynan's security paste works like that but with a swarm of flies instead.

  • yeah but the honey's shit

  • I'm going to be locking my bike about 3m from (behind!) the firing point at the range tomorrow.

    Shame the rear light is blocked by the saddle chain
