How do I choose the right bike lock?

What should I consider when choosing a bike lock?

You should consider the lock's security level, type, size, and weight. What type of bike do you have?

I have a mountain bike. Are there specific locks that are better for that?

For mountain bikes, U-locks and heavy-duty chain locks are recommended for better security. Do you often park your bike in high-risk areas?

Yes, I usually park it in the city. How do I know if a lock is secure enough?

Look for locks with a high security rating, like those rated by Sold Secure or ART. Also, consider the material and thickness.

Thanks! Any tips on how to lock my bike properly?

Always lock the frame and at least one wheel to a solid object. Avoid locking just the quick-release parts.
