I think this topic deserves its own main forum category, but since it doesnt I decided to start a thread here, safety is the next closest thing I suppose. So lets start a nice lil giant database of security systems. All ideas whether tried, tested, experimental or even just ideas are welcome.
I have seen many stories of people getting bikes stolen, its been a long time since its happened to my own bike, and i am not looking forward to the next time. How many bikes have you had stolen? I think we could all learn from each other and bring in a great resource of anti-theft knowledge and security options that are available for bicycles. I have found a few pretty nice options, but am sure there are many others out there for cheaper or more expensive, for some cost is everything, others cost is nothing. Any information or ideas, links to products or short synopses of how your bike was stolen is all helpful and wanted. The stories can teach us what not to do, while products or projects can allow us to be more proactive with bike thefts.
Here are the three things I have found that seemed worth buying to me, the first one I havent tried yet, but am going to order it later this week.
Bicycle Security & Theft Prevention Product
Bike Shepherd - Bike Registration and Stolen Bike Alert
Motor bike Bicycle Alarm Security Sound Alarm Lock | eBay (not sure why ebay put me in the UK...lol)
