    Never use a cable to secure anything valuable. Accessories, yeah, okay. But your primary should be a hefty chain or U-lock with a decent lock mechanism. Decide whether you need more than one for where and how long you need to secure your bike. Most times, I use a hefty chain like the one he shows, in conjunction with one or two thick (10mm min) cables for the quick-release seatpost, seat and pedals (not a big deal in terms of money but a major inconvenience!). Sometimes I also use a u-lock for the rear wheel to frame.
    Hiplok makes U-locks that are much more resistant to being cut by grinding wheels (the alloy used contains very hard particles that tear up even diamond-encrusted cutting wheels). They’re expensive but better for places rife with bike theft.
    If your ebike is very heavy, you may be able to get away with compact brake rotor locks. Won’t keep 2-3 strong guys from just hefting the whole thing into a truck or van for them to remove it later though.
    The Lock-Picking Lawyer is a good YT channel to see how easily each is picked or defeated (some are so poor, he doesn’t even need to pick them).
    And a loud motion alarm may scare off casual thieves if there will be many people around. At least it’ll make them sweat a little more while they try to steal your bike. Some locks come with one, but it’s easy to find such alarms for under $20 and attach them to the frame.

    • @yeejay6396
      @yeejay6396 10 місяців тому +1

      I use a Harley licensed U lock Kryptonite like the one in the vid.
      That I did, I normally use the U lock around my rotor.
      Im not sure why folks think lesser of their property, should they use a bike as a form of transportation, you should secure like you give a spit, Bikes don't have locks built in door panels and latches like cars do, you've gotta invest in a proper lock much like ya gave a sht to buy the bike in the first place. Every thing takes a bit of effort, but the effort pays off; you get to keep your sht for next long while and then some. 😂

      Yea i need to buy a better lock or two for my ebike asap. I have an elook folding lock and another cheap lock i use and the area is decent (ppl leave cheap bikes unlocked)
      But i leave it for a while and get worried.
      Thinking i may buy a heavy duty chain lock and a good u lock and use those 2 AND the elook one i already have.
      Either that or just get a good chain one andnuse every one i have and maybe an alarm. It is in an area where i think that could potentially be useful.
      Any recommendations would be useful. Hopefully buy them this friday just gotta figure out which. Dont wanna take any chances.
      Although i do remove my battery, seat and front wheel just to make it even less tempting as well.

      @@Kaetoh Hiplok’s u-lock is made of a material that chews up grinding wheels if that type of theft is common in your area. It takes 2-3 wheels and tens of minutes to cut through. However, the price is about $200 and the u-lock is fairly small.
      If grinding wheel tool-assisted theft isn’t a concern, then the stronger Abus or Kryptonite chains and u-locks are fine. I use Kryptonite (both the yellow color-coded New York and the orange color-coded Evolution series) as bike theft isn’t common where I ride, certainly not with cordless cutting tools. Catalytic converter theft with those is, but bikes don’t have them!
      What is common with those each of those brand’s better locks are more wafers in the key mechanisms and both sides of the shackles are captured by the lock body, requiring two rather than one cut to remove the lock, and hardened steel alloys in lock and shackle or chain.
      Generally, for the same thickness, you can buy Kryptonite locks for less than Abus. One advantage of Abus locks is you can buy them so they use the same key, though you may have to wait for them if your store doesn’t have them in stock.
      One other thing I do is replace quick release levers I don’t often use with bolted-on hardware. In addition, I use Hexlox inserts in the hex sockets of the bolts to make them difficult to undo. I did this with my wheels and seatpost clamps (except on my folding bike, on which I use that QR often) so I don’t need to carry cables to secure them..

    I bought a Walmart lock two with the pad lock and cable, and one that u bar , within a week one padlock one took a dump , both keys stop working and they where flimsy, i didn’t abuse it , so now it was stuck on my bike , so later that week, I’m unlocking the other one I thought, so now I have the key for the good lock attempting to open the bad lock by mistake, obviously the key didn’t fit , so I just had the tip in and it popped open , I was like wtf , and it did it like three times in a row , so disappointed , but I don’t leave my bike alone or it is brought inside.

      Kryptonite Chain w/ U lock.
      Not cheap, as per video. Depending on where you shop the price can range greatly. Because mine was Harley licensed I paid a tad more than the one in the video (to tell you the truth I can't entirely recall how much I paid for it. Could've been $140 but something tells me I paid about $165-$170 for mine)
      Anyway :
      Weather proofed, anodized chain, heavy fabric coated chain to prevent hard scratches to surfaces, coated U lock for weather proofing and abrasive prevention.
      I own and use one fore my motorcycle, I rarely use the chain portion because I keep my bike parked overnight, not for extension periods. I use the U-lock around the rear rotor.

      Hiplok D1000 or Litelok X1 or X3 are much better locks than the Kryptonite. Granted the D1000 and the X3 are about twice the price at $300 each, but the X1 is only $25 or so more than the Kryptonite, $150, and is a more secure lock.
