Bike Security / Slándáil Rothair
All locks are not made equal. As a general guide think about spending around 10% of the value of the bike you are trying to protect on a lock.
The tools used to force rigid U locks and flexible cable or chain locks are different and most thieves don’t carry both.
- Consider using a combination for maximum protection.
- Lock your bike to something secure and don’t lock it to a part of your bike which can be easily removed such as wheels, saddle posts or carriers.
- Lock your bike as snugly as possible – slack locks are easier to lever apart.
- Always lock your bike even when it’s parked somewhere secure – bikes are regularly stolen from hallways, back yards and garages.
- Lots of stolen bikes are recovered but there is often no way to locate the owner.
- Take a few photos of your bike and record the serial number of the frame.
- The serial number is usually stamped on the frame under the bottom bracket (near peddles).
- Register your bike: https://bikeregister.ie/ It is a free service to help locate stolen bikes.
- Bike theft is serious – always make a formal report of bike theft at your local Garda station.
