The different types of bike locks
U-locks
TheU lock is the most resistant. Choose a reputable brand, preferably SRA-approved. At Ixtem, we're particularly fond of the German brand ABUS, which we've been selling since the beginning. Don't forget that this will probably be your main anti-theft device. Remember to choose a U-lock long enough to attach your frame to street furniture. It's essential to have a fixed point to avoid your bikes being carried away under your arm, or removed from a van in the case of an EAB.
Folding or cable locks
This is the easiest to transport. It allows you to secure your bike during a stopover and easily attach it to a fixed point. ABUS offers the Bordo range. These behave a bit like a carpenter's master. It comes in different lengths and levels of resistance, with key or code. Then there's Tex-lock, a range of indestructible textile locks that are lighter than a chain. These locks are made from several layers of ultra-resistant materials, making them both robust and flexible.
Chain
Chain is generally heavy to carry if you want it to be strong. It's best used at home, but you can also use it in the city, where theft is more common. Its level of resistance will depend on the size of the links that make it up. For electric bikes, you need a strong chain. We recommend the Abus Granit CityChain X-PLUS 1060 chain , whichhas FUB 2-wheel certification and is recognized by insurers.
Other types of anti-theft devices
In town, it can be useful to secure your wheels by replacing quick-release axles with an anti-theft nut. The same can be done for the seatpost. You can also use a second lock to secure the wheels to the frame.
If you're at home, you may find it useful to use a ground anchor to create a fixing point in your garage.
Electric bike locks
Considering the price of a bike, it's not a bad idea to invest in a tracker or a connected anti-theft device like theBORDO 6500A SMARTX alarm anti-theft device.
