Probably, but then they would only need to undo your rear axel nut, remove the wheel, slide of chain (and if they have time put back wheel).

Saying that whenever i have chained bikes its been through the wheels which is even less secure.

For maximum security somewhere on the frame?

How are they going to slide off the chain if it's through the wheel and swingarm and attached to something solid?

See there is a "hole" in the swingarm. It'd be best to put it though that and the wheel.

Unforetunately my bike doesn't have a hole like that in the arm. Sad

I suppose you are right, with the title of the thread i had assumed the OP meant just thru the swingarm.. /shrug

Where ever you can. But through a solid part of the frame would make more sense.

The weak point is not them unthreading the chain. Its how easy it is to cut......
Oh and make sure its attached to something solid, so it can't simply be lifted up into a van Thumbs Up

Have you had a look at the Anti-Pinch Pin? That way you can lock your bike through the frame.

Best used with the Squire Lock on the site and a ground anchor.

Have a look at the packages of chain, lock and anchor on that site. People look in horror at spending nearly £300 but think nothing about spending it on farkles for their bike. Getting some decent security is a good investment if you plan on owning bikes for a few years.
