I’m thinking about commuting by bike from home to my french classes, but the thought of my bike being stolen worries me and I’d like to hear your opinion.

I think that Onguard’s Pitbull 8003 U lock would be good enough for my current situation, since my class only lasts about an hour and my bike would be inside the school.

I paid around $450 for my bike years ago, it’s an aluminium road bike with shimano sora shifts. Would you say that it could eye catching?

I’d be glad to hear your thoughts!

    I think chain locks are generally considered to be more difficult to break that u-locks. Both are equally easy to cut with large enough wire cutters but with an angle grinder you need someone else to hold the chain still while as with u-lock you can hold it yourself.

      False. One foot one the chain, one hand tensing it and one hand grinding it. That’s faster than a good U.
