Most are opportunistic stealers, they're just going about their day and looking around for anything that's easy to steal. They aren't specifically going around to steal bikes, and if they are and are carrying tools for that purpose then it makes things easier when arresting them.

My bike looks like it was pulled from a dumpster to uneducated bike thieves. The amount of cosmetic "damage", stickers, and filth protect it. My rotting bar tape, my friction shifters, my mini u lock. My bike survives while yuppies get got, over and over.
Take your aluminum frame and spray it with paint stripper, then random spray paint. Stickers. let it rot. Every part should be hex bolt. Rubber cement a ball bearing in each one once fit is tuned. They only risk is wheel theft after that.

I used those when I worked in a Manhattan park and we cut locks on stripped down bike frames that had clearly been abandoned. I put together a beater city bike from various parts.
There was a crazy amount of bike theft, and a lot of motorcycle theft, with crews quickly rolling a motorcycle into a van and driving off.

Chain locks are invulnerable to angle grinders because they flop around too much and the sleeve fucks with the cutting disk as well. Bolt cutters on the other hand ... I hope the reinforcement and thickness on my chain links is strong enough.

They don't flop around at all if you hold the chain tight with one hand and cut with the other. The sleeve doesn't do shit to the disk besides make a bit of burning plastic smoke and spray a little bit of molten plastic around.

My pro tip: use a hot glue pistol to create a fake weld around your top tube, then spray it with anti rust paint. Looks like shit but it will make the frame look absolutely worthless and unsellable for potential thieves

I think chain locks are better but not because of added safety but because of added functionality.
You can secure them around a much wider variety of objects (which I guess could translate to added safety), and they're also easier to secure to the bike. I use a cable myself but I think it's too hard to wrap it around the frame snuggly; it always wants to spring out.

Rubber doesn't gum up angle grinders; it just makes a lot of extra smoke.
The only time rubber would actually have a noticeable effect on the disk/performance is if you were trying to cut through something thick like a car tire or something stupid like that.

Grinders can be defeated by coating your locks in friction-sensitive explosive. Picric acid is pretty effective. It can be applied wet, then it dries into picrate salts which are very reactive when in contact with metal. It's not particularly deadly, but it's enough to spook the thief away.

Non extreme tips for avoiding bike theft while owning a very expensive bike locked up for more than 10 minutes in a city
>Cheap shitty looking saddle, I have a beautiful saddle which I use for most riding, but if I'm just nipping to the shops then I switch it out post and all for a pile of shit no name saddle complete with scratched and slightly rusted post.
>Different colour front fork, preferably a colour that clashes horribly with the rest of the bike, mine are orange and the bike is silver, makes any bike look like it was rustled together from mismatched parts
>Fenders - I take them off for pleasure rides, but when I know I'm going to be leaving the bike unattended, even in the height of summer, I take a few minutes to pop them back on, they are disgusting and ruin the Bike silhouette, plus the front one is white and the rear one blue so it adds to the cobbled together look, they are also scratched and dirty as fuck
>Cheapo pedals, again I normally use some nice DMC's, but for the sake of less than a minute spanner time I stick on shitty faded black plastic pedals with those cheap reflectors.

And that's it, prep takes about 10 minutes, but the bike which normally looks awesome is easily transformed into what looks very much like a pile of shit, the frame is still nice, the components are all great but the overall appearance is one of a shitty old junk heap.

In Texas you can kill trespassers and use deadly force to protect your property.

Also, helps if they're black, which they probably are if they're stealing bikes

If I live in a decent suburb can I use a U-lock on my nice bike (~$700 brand new a few years ago) while I'm at the gym?

Guys dont hate me but i used to steal abandoned bikes in a college town. I seen the city doing it due to overfilled bike racks and was young/dumb/poor and indoctrinated. I mean i literally pulled a change jar with $35 out of the dumpster once.

Oppurtunistic is correct. Though you can carry a grinder around, theres an easier mark. I used to skip fat chains/u-locks. Plenty of cable locks were out there. This was 15 years ago and different than a major city where people do this for a living.

This true in alot of cases. To make amends once i got into town and in my 1st 5 minutes an abandoned bike in an industrial area with diff handlebars/seat/rack. I rode it to the bike shop and told them. They kept thinking i was a crackhead and telling me they dont buy bikes.

What is the best general purpose cheap light duty lock? I will only be locking my inexpensive new bike on riding trails, in parks, etc not going to work shopping or school

it's your own fault for leaving it out of your sight.
The only acceptable place to leave your bike is a fully enclosed bike locker in an area that's monitored. Anything else, any meme """bike lock""" arrangement you care to name, and you're begging to have it stolen and are only allowed to be angry at yourself when (not IF, but WHEN) it happens.
No one can logically, rationally, objectively refute this, any attempt to do so is extreme COPE and deserves to be ridiculed.

Basically asking for it. Everybody here rides bikes, but only retires folks tend to spend actual money on them, unless they're e-bikes. Ebikes aren't often stolen if you remove the battery though.

Waited a year in a waitlist to get a bike locker with the local transportation authority and didn't even end up using it.
Gave it up after a year or two. Hopefully someone who uses it got it.

If I was Batman I’d buy 1000 bikes of all different ranges from shitty to very expensive and set them up all over the city. To each one I’d affix an array of easy to cut looking locks that if sawed through would release an acid pressurised at some crazy PSI that would permanently diable the hands of the crim. You forfeight your hands when touching what is not yours

knee ga
but a lot of anons said it already, most bike thefts are of opportunity, the dude sees you riding alone and slow and pushes you off your bike (happened last month here on my town) or you leave the bike unlocked like the monumental retarded you are (happened 2 times last month, at least there were two videos of it on the whasapp bike group, fucking retarded assholes leaving 1000+ reais bikes outside without a lock)
it is good to have a good bike lock, and to always be aware of your surroundings

>none of the bystanders just hit the guys while they were actually stealing the bikes and had their hands full
literally why not just pick something up and smash them in the head while they're cutting locks
