I encountered this yesterday and locked up on the end, but was thinking "what if the ends are already occupied" Since cable locks are so easily defeat-able, any good suggestions for alternatives?

I this was my only choice, I would use a chain like this one: Robot Check

The chain would lock the front wheel and frame, then cable the back wheel.
