funny that... I too own some 4' lengths of link chain - lets just say BiTD they offered "peace of mind" whilst riding thru dodgy neighbourhoods.
They've mostly been retired to other mundane securative duties but after Friday's latest atrocity (Melbourne, Australia 9th November 2018) now reconsidering if a fourfooter should be again be kept wrapped around my toptube.
Maybe a nice powdercoated link chain would be nice. Mine are old zinc annealed, makes hands go black.
