tips for bike security 1: use a chain instead of a cable lock to prevent thieves from cutting the bike from the rack with cable cutters. 2: use a keyed padlock to secure the chain, combination locks are easy to break into. 3: etch your bikes serial number inside a hollow part of the bike that you can get to. Hope this helps protect your bike!
