I know my bike isn't worth that much, but I'd still hate to get it stolen. I got the Pitbill mini for $24 on Amazon (compared to $50 at a store)... would it be better and safe if I were to purchase a second u-lock, lock the back wheel to the frame with U-Lock #1, lock the frame to the poll with U-Lock #2 and then the front wheel and seat with the cable connected to U-Lock #2. What are your thought's on this procedure?
Not in the pic you provided. Would also have to cut the cable (or the lock) because it is looped around the frame. Which is STILL probably easier than cutting the wheel and hauling the bike away rather than riding it away.
The whole point of the mini u-locks is to make it difficult to jam tools in there. Going with two of them (daisy chained?) sort of defeats that. Your idea sounds a little obtuse, why not just get a larger u-lock..
