I look forward to reading all replies. Thank you.
There are only a few locks that I would trust and they cost a lot more than £27.

But a cheap way- two sensible quality locks used at the same time. Not used this method myself but someone once told me that a thief would not take the trouble to break open 2 locks on a bike.

But going to something that will deter thiefs for longer you have to go for something like a Kryptonite lock and hawser. Should set you back about £70.

My own lock method is foolproof. I keep one of two things on my saddle at all times- My Butt or my hand.

And it will not matter which form of security you use on your bike- If someone wants it- they will get it.
