Which bicycle lock is best for a Townie in Los Angeles, CA? |
I live in crimey Los Angeles, but don't think I'd leave my new Electra Townie (women's frame) "outside" over-night. I may want to leave it out while I'm at the beach, park or restaurant. I know my bike is not "worth" a lot of money (over $500 invested), but it doesn't mean that my bike isn't worth protecting. I have researched Kryptonite and OnGuard, but I dunno what SIZE to get since a lot of places dont even carry what I researched. Any suggestions? Ulock is your best bet. No cables, theives can cut a cable in seconds. U-locks will deter theft but if someone is willing to commit a crime, anything can get stolen. Kryptonite has a good reputation but some time ago the lock was able to be picked by a ball-point pen. I think that was resolved. Any lock is better than no lock at all. Make sure everything is bolted down, no quick releases. You don't want to come back to your bike to see just a frame...no wheels or seat/seat post. Good luck! |
