So, still too darn cold outside for me but dreaming of spring. As my Hillborne is my first 'nice' bike in forever i've been thinking about bike lock options strategies. I'm asking the collective because part of me things, "hey this is a nice looking bike better protect it." and another part of me is saying "hey, this ain't no go-fast flashy bike, it's not a target." so i'm trying to resolve how much i should really worry about locking it up, strategies etc.
In the past i've always just used a simple cable lock, but that's been on my cruiser (which while it looks really nice, i didn't consider it a theft risk). As my Hillborne has a few expensive things on it (phil rear wheel, nitto racks, etc) i'm a little more inclined to be more careful, so what are people's approaches? U-lock the rear wheel+bike to post and then cable to the front wheel? dual u-locks? Please keep in mind that i need to carry all the locks as well so something like a kryptonite nyc chain lock is out of the question. If it helps this is for around town riding and that would mostly be in and around Washington DC but mostly the suburbs of DC. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
