I'll be doing a considerable amount of cycling up Manchester way over the next year. It seems that bike theft is peculiarly high in the UK (who'd have thought it'd be so much worse than the Netherlands? A 15eu lock and some awareness is more than enough there!) As as a result of that, I want to get 2-3 good quality locks to ensure my possession of my slick new ride (courtesy of @smokeysmoo). Folk seem to think that the quality of lock doesn't really matter in this country because bike thieves ACTUALLY carry around angle grinders (wtf?!), though I'd prefer to deter most opportunist and would-be thieves. I'd like to request recommendations for top-range bicycle locks or good quality mid-range locks.
Does anybody have any experience with the Litelok X1? I've been weighing up buying one for locking the frame and a couple of mid-range locks to lock the wheels to the frame. It's pricey and still not immune to two discs.
