best security

[yankeedoodle]

got an offroader and I dont want it nicked. recommend me a decent chain and/or disc lock please Id rather not pay more than £80 if possible

[powelly]

i saw a decent looking chain at hein gerick for £30 was thinking of getting that and the oxford bos alarm disklock for £60. I know neither of them are the best bits of kit, but it looks like a usable combination and i get the impression your only really trying to stop the scrotes, the pros will take it if they really want it whatever you do.

Plan 2 is to get a 12 foot lenght of rope, tie a double knot in one end and loop it through the frame... the other end Ill tie to my Rotweiller, The bike will be safe as houses as long as the thief does not bring biscuits!

iv seen some good looking abus chains for about £80. are abus all they're hyped up to be? yeah im guessing a cheaper lock would stop the scrotes.I think a disc lock is more important as id put that on the bike when its in a car park etc

I've found Abus stuff to be good, it's no Almax and will still be cropped by a pro but it should deter most kids.

my 110 decibel disk lock from hein gericke cost 40 notes

[colin1]

id recommend chaining it to something secure such as a ground anchor or concrete fence post

CCTV in an obvious place with a security light.

Is there a wheel-clamp used on bikes (yes, by the traffic wardens or private security, or whatever)? I must admit I never seen a bike clamped... If they do exist, wouldn't they be pretty effective as a security device? if they don't exist, then please ignore....

Dont let people know you've got it, when trailering it try keeping it covered, okay the local scum will see it's a bike but not what it is exactly.

big chain and a ground anchor, try almax for the chain, keep those off the floor and chain the bike through the frame somewhere not the whee;s as it has been known that people open their garage in the morning to find a wheel chained up where a bike was.

I have a remote alarm on my shed that sounds in the house but cannot be heard in the yard where the bikes are kept which enables me to 'release' the hounds and unlock the guncabinet.

we also have a trip wire set up connected to a live shot cartridge no blank rubbish.

all of our stuff was installed after we'd had two bikes stollen.

the first was taken out the window (avoiding the £900 door with huge locks and the 2k garage door)

the second my brother was too lazy to put in the locked shed and left it out.. it went that night

best way to keep a bike safe is to limit who knows that you've got it. dont tell every mo fo like my dad does
down the pub. and as I said above keep it covered. try not to leave it running if it's noisy, its amazing how many chavs appear when I've got the pit bike running to spray it down...

hope this is of some use

I can recommend an Almax chain with a Squire lock, but usually only used at home, cos it's just too cumersome to carry around

I also have a Kryptonite disk lock that I'd normally use at work and in town etc


But my favourite is a great big rabid slavering dog that dry humps your leg if you get too close, and would tear the meat off your leg if you protest about it....

Re-iterating whats been said, and based on a video i saw of how easy it is to break these thatham approved locks, always chain through the frame, and keep as little slack as you can. And a alarmed (xena) disc lock for good measure. You could install a ground anchor and chain it through the frame to the anchor if it would reach, ensureing there was no slack
