[#1100324]

I need to get some long-ish chains as part of my security "overhaul".

Anyone care to recommend any (or perhaps not recommend any that have not done the job)?

Cheers

I would be looking at motorcycle stuff - something like the
English Super Chain or oxford magnum or abus granite from http://www.mandp.co.uk/products/list/Security/Chains-and-Padlocks

Sobering video. Watching that makes me wonder why anyone bothers locking bikes!

Those Pragmasis ones are supposed to be good.

Because you don't generally get thieves wandering about with conspicuous 5ft boltcroppers? ๐Ÿ˜€

This is the testing that Ride magazine did:

No Almax though - while I don't doubt their chains are very good, I do wonder how many chains actually get broken in the way they present.

Thanks everyone.

Simon_g - I was thinking of locking at home. Thanks for the article.
