You should put your name on your bike. Sometimes people will try and steal your bike by putting a second bike lock over it and then coming back later to remove your first lock and steal it. Without a name, If you call somebody and ask them to remove a lock they will not be able to tell if it is the robber getting them to remove your lock, or if it is you trying get rid of the robbers lock. U-Locks are the most secure but all the bike locks are pretty shitty. Also the pole you secure things too could be attacked as well. You also need to put a bike around the wheels and the frame because people will just remove the wheel and take the frame, or just steal the wheels. Sometimes people will remove the bolts on places where you would secure your bike and then just pull the pole out and steal your bike (called sucker poles).
