Magnum 3000 u-lock, PB Transport/Storage Chain/Mini u-lock combo. Yes, the chain is big & heavy, and in many cases overkill, but its full two meter length means I can lock the bike up anywhere. I try to leave the chain where I would normally park the bike, and when I do I use this cable lock to back up my u-lock.

The chain or cable I wrap around the seatpost, and to transport the u-lock I invested in a cool ABUS UGH 02 bracket. Quite slick, IMHO:

I'd expect a solid "A".
