> > Hi, Leah. > I wouldn't have anything to do with a cable. I had my bike stolen 30 years ago from a high traffic area of sunbathers and pedestrians in the middle of the day with a heavy duty cable lock. I'm still skittish about locking my Joe A. in the city, but I'm OK with my locking protocol for outside the area.
I have two heavy duty Arbus u-locks--a big one and a bigger one--that I purchased last year. I think they cost me about $100/$125 each. I lock my bike frame and one wheel to an immovable pole with the bigger lock. I use the big lock to lock the second wheel to the immovable object or to the frame. If they want to steal my bike, they have get thru two locks. I suggest you put the best lock(s) you have on your much-loved Betz. The other bikes, should anything happen to them, will be much easier to replace. I think with some good locks, thieves will more likely walk past your bikes. Enjoy your bike rides and your vacation.
