Well I figured this would be the response I would get, I was just giving it consideration and I don't see how the DIY way would cost $55? I don't know how expensive a chain is but it can't be that much. Anyways, I'll probably get a kyrpto chain lock like the one in the ebay link posted earlier. I think it's like $25 at Icycleusa. Thanks for all of the arguements guys. Even though it is a low risk area and a diy lock would work just fine, I'll probably hold out for something made specifically for bikes.
Oh yeah, you're an ******* if you've ever spent $30 on a ****ing belt.
