For bicycle owners, cycle security is one of the most discussed topic; ‘which bike security products are best for my bike’? Using sturdy padlocks, chains, disc locks, and ground anchors are all recommended when parking your bike at all times but the key message is clear – always double up on security where possible.
This means using at least 2 different types of security measures in order to protect your bike and deter thieves.
The type of bike locks to use will depend on your type of bike, and where you are parking it. There are a wide range of portable disc locks and chains, ideal for when you are riding around the town, as well as numerous chain locks and ground anchors suitable for securing in your back garden, garage or bike storage unit.
The Screamer Cycle Disc Lock gives you that extra and security for your bike when not in use. Once activated, if someone is then attempts to move your bike or tamper with the lock the 100db siren will activate automatically, emitting a shrill of 100 decibels to put off would-be bike thieves and alert you.
The 7mm locking pin fits through the holes on the brake discs of the majority of cycles. There are 3 keys supplied with the lock, with a key way cover to protect the locking mechanism against dirt and dust. The lock can also be secured without the alarm being activated, if required.
Parking up your bike
And finally – Always park your bike to something solid in a visible place when out riding around the city centre. Select highly visible locations such as busy streets or in front of store as thieves are unlikely to consider taking your bike if it’s locked out in the open.
And when you park your bicycle up for the night, make sure you store it in either a garage, or in a secure outdoor bike storage unit to keep out of sight and safe from thieves.
