I had another bike, where the tracker stayed pinging for 30 days - the police basically said they weren't an insurance recover team and so I lost that bike, and they didn't remove the tracker.

What was the tracker called

so im gonna go with,

1 maybe 2 hiplock d1000 one on front wheel and one on rear

i have a pragmasis 19mm chain which i will use to secure rear wheel to pole (which was the chain which was cut to steal my previous bike, they left it so may aswell use it again)

i will have a almax 25mm chain to secure front wheel to pole

and both a battery power tracker and a air tag

, if i lose this bike i wont ride again till i get my own garage

i think that is at least 12 mins of cutting with an angle grinder which hopefully is a big enough deterant

I want that Litelok 3 as it took the Bennet's bloke 4 discs to grind through it.

One cut tho, so more discs for the second cut.

But order now and it's 30 days for delivery and once they have the money there may well be other delays. Shame.

I've now got 3 disc locks as well as a monster chain. Right faff but has to be done.

i took the plunge and ordered , hopefully there is no delays

One thing worth noting - I’ve a Makita battery angle grinder, and I recently chopped up an old trailer frame - basically angle iron. I had a stack of batteries. The (genuine) 5ah batteries lasted a couple of minutes, tops. I’d say with a big Pragmasis or Almax you’re probably safe, and if you’ve two on there they aren’t getting through, unless they’ve a rucksack full of spare batteries.

well i had a pragmasis 19mm and i thought i was safe with that , but they got through that before , hopefully the 25mm is alot harder

I'm resigned to the fact that one theft claim will probably put an end to my motorcycling. At home my Wing lives at the side of the house locked to a Y ground anchor (Pragmasis chain) with an alarmed disk lock on the front. The bike is under a framed cover.

When I'm out it's just the disk lock. I try to park in busy areas and am not afraid to park on the pavement if it suits.

When I'm away I only take a disk lock but always cover the bike at night.

I live in the suburbs and ride in central London often. Hope that the sheer weight of the bike is a deterrent as you'd need a team if blokes to lift it!

is your chain bigger than 22mm
