Combining chain and u-lock seems to be a good idea, as they require different tools to cut. Most thieves won't carry both around.

Depends on the rim and cutter.For example,a small cutter would easily cut a singlewall/lowprofile rim with the tire deflated but would't work as easy on a deepV because it doesn't open far enough.

number one thing thieves rely on:
people thinking they can rely on thieves. most theives will do exactly what you think most thieves won't do when you think they won't do it and that's how they stay thieves. What everyone should keep in mind is that no bike is completely safe. Every lock can be broken given the proper tool. The goal is just to make the theft as difficult as possible to deter the intrigue of theft. OR You could just ride a clunker to the places you need to lock up your bike and take the nice one out when its leisure riding so you don't have to ride it and it'll always be with you. |
My mini u lock, I lock my rear rim to on part of the triangle.
But now i have deeper rims, I can't So i moved over to big chain lock. |

The best locking strategy is to just use a u-lock and lock up next to a bike that is A) Nicer B) Easier to steal C) both. C + U-Lock equals best method.
