anyone else worth looking at other than almax ?
cheers

Nope…

Kryptonite M18

A very good lock indeed.

I use a couple of these

Not light

or cheap

but pretty solid

+1 for the kryptonite New York. My only concern is that as they're so well known and well regarded – and so bloody expensive – they probably do rather highlight an expensive bike to the scrote-in-the-know. So whilst you would return to find your frame and rear wheel intact, everything else could still be gone.

That's a long winded way of saying there's no such thing as the perfect bike lock.

cheers for the suggestions, to be honest its for the home so it can be a big chunky thing as its to lock a few bike up

They can all be cut by a battery angle grinder and your frame with a junior hacksaw.
I prefer the two decent locks [New York above + an Oxford one and a ground anchor ]and a number of other locks. Wheels off skewers + seat stored elswhere. Ocassionally undo stem bolts as well. Sacrificial bike just propped up unlocked. If they want them they will need to work for them.
Suspect it will not be opportunists who target me so good locks + excellent insurance IMHO.

abus d lock 54

ive got one of the abus ones, ive a trelock one i got from a motorbike shop when i lived in belgium which is good and a magnum d and chain but was thinking of a big beast to go round the lot 😉 shame its 200 notes but i guess you get what you pay for

I went for a kryptonite new york chain, can lock up to 2/3 bikes with it as 150cm long. Not very pratical to carry around though, weighs 8 kilos!

if it's for the whole lot maybe a ground anchor with all if the above lobbed on?

not sure about mounting a ground anchor as its got underfloor heating and i dont want to go drilling it lol

oxford hardcore, comes out top on all the motorbike mags security reviews

i kinda want a dog but mrs doesnt like them ;-(

Abus Granit 54 X-Plus.

If i lock my bike up at uni, i use an abus granit mini lock with pitlock skewers in the wheels.

Ground anchor discretely into the wall not floor and use an Almax…sorted. My chosen method of securing my bikes

why not the floor?

Hurling boys:

Abus Granite and Kryptonite New York didn't fair too well in this vid:

Not sure if they're the same as mentioned above.

Almax or Pragmasis are the best bet, 16mm or above.

Which is why I recommended a D Lock.

People are aware that some bike thieves have been hacksawing through frames to steal bikes aren't they? If they are breaking them anyway, the frame is just a part and the other components still make it worth their while. Don't scrimp on your building security just to buy a big chain.
