I took the plunge and bought an almost new Pashley Guv'nor in the third highest cycle theft area in the country!

I'm going to keep this bike in a locked store cupboard so thought a padlock alarm would be the best bet.

I haven't read any decent reviews on these padlock alarms due to poor battery performance, but saw this one for £11...anyone used this?

Looks a bit too cheap to me. Take a look at some motorcycle dealers such as Hein Gerike, M&P or Buster's Accessories. There are better quality alarmed padlocks out there. Xena is a known brand that comes to mind.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
