I’ve got 3 chains (all Thatcham approved) that I use to manacle my 3 (soon to be 2) bikes together.

I thought that would keep the toerags away - too heavy to lift 3 bikes at once into van surely. Now I see on YouTube that a 42" bolt cropper will get through the lot in under a minute. Ooo er.

Perhaps the solution is to get a bike that no-one will steal because it’s too big for 17 yr olds, too small for the big boys (no Hayabusa here) and not worth stealing for the parts.

Ratbike here I come…
