I think you all might be surprised at just how easily some of these locks are either cut or overcome by thieves. There are some amazing videos on the web about this subject I came across while researching for locks for our e-bikes. One take away that resonated with me is that if thieves want your item bad enough they will overcome the lock. I came to the conclusion that I didn’t have to find the perfect lock I just needed a lock or locks that were more of a PITA than the next guy. I hope whatever choices you make your lock keeps your bikes safe. I went with ABUS Granite Extreme U-lock and a 4K chain that were intended for motorcycles. Wasn’t the most inexpensive option but accomplished my primary goal.
