I live in a relatively safe neighborhood, but you know someone is going to steal my Orange beauty.
My lock just got busted (after very few uses), and I'd like to get something other than a cable lock, as I found it extremely annoying to use. I'd like a U-lock, but I am worried that it either won't fit anywhere on the frame or won't attach to the frame at all.

Any recommendations?

If you are gonna lock a folding bike, you will need a long chain!

8FS has quick release wheels, seat post, top-tube, with minor disassembly anyone can break down your bike easily. Forget about that.
