Bicycle Theft Prevention
Thieves will steal an entire bicycle or they may steal
parts or items attached to the bike that are not securely
fastened.
Always lock your bike when it is left unattended, even
if it is for a short period of time

on a porch

immovable object. This also prevents your bicycle
from falling over. If you only lock one wheel, your
bicycle can be quickly detached and carried away
If you dont need a quick release seat and wheels,
replace them with standard bolts. If you do want
quick release items, take them with you or lock them
to your frame
Take lights, mirrors, bags and panniers with you,
along with anything else that is not securely fastened
Consider riding an inexpensive bicycle for everyday
use and short trips
