HOW TO LOCK UP YOUR BIKE(Tips From a Victim)

My brother always pushed me to lock up a bike and wth his 2000 dollar one
he can’t even afford to take a chance on locking it up

Good job bro… Finally someone on here explains it better than the others

Would it be be better in the 2nd example to use the U-Lock on the post part
of the fence rather than a thin uptight? Good video, thanks.

My bike was stolen inside our condo, it was hooked up to a bolt that was
attached to a cement wall. They used bolt cutters to cut through the cable
chain.

The police have pictures and even with that, the chances are that I will
not find my bike (22%).

I now have the Kryptonite Evolution Series 4 U Lock, and 4 foot Kryptonite
link chain. I will get another heavier chain to secure the front wheel,
and use the 4 foot chain like you (frame, back wheel and saddle).

In Seattle they say that the bike can be stolen in 15 minutes, so they say
to never leave the bike locked longer than that.

I actually don’t plan on locking my bike at all, and if I do, the bike will
be within my sight, like going into a store and buying a soda.

I now store my bike inside my condo in my second bedroom.

Thanks for the great video.

Could save money like i do. By investing in some anti theft skewers that
are used for both wheels and the seat for $20. Then all you have to do is
by a double bolt you lock or a chain with a mini u lock is always the best
because it wiggles around when trying to be cut and bolt cutters have a
hard time with em

Thank you for the video dude – great techniques. I just got a new bike
today so I needed to know the best way to lock it. Sorry you lost your
bike. this will help others though. Cheers
