Locks only stop the honest and the lazy. It's a sad fact that if someone really wants to steal your bike, they are going to get it. Fortunately, most thieves are not that dedicated and rely upon convenient access.
Putting a good, strong chain through the front tire and around the swingarm or the frame can deter any opportunistic criminals. Appearance is important when it comes to deterring thieves. The best way to protect your bike is to prevent someone from even trying to take it. A flimsy Victor chain that looks like it can be cut through in 30 seconds is not going to do you any good.
At 5 feet 6 inches long, the Bully Locks chain is a beefy length of case hardened, tempered steel. It's long enough to wind around your machine and tough enough that your bike won't look like easy pickings.
The Bully Locks chain has a nylon webbing that will protect your bike from scratches and protect the chain from the weather. With a good piece of chain, it won't matter if you have a cheap lock, so don't skimp.
At around $70, the cost is a bit on the high side for a length of chain. It might serve you well to see what the local hardware store has to offer, but remember that avoiding theft is a psychological endeavor. If having the Bully Locks logo will convince the uncommitted criminal that this chain will be more trouble than they'd like, it's worth every penny.
You can also indulge in an award-winning security bike alarm system like the Scorpio RFID Digital Alarm.
