How secure are the Steadyrack D Lock and Cables?Updated 4 months ago
Our locks and cables are designed to deter opportunistic theft. If they are used in unattended highly visible private or public spaces they will not be effective at preventing theft by a professional with sophisticated tools or equipment. Where possible the included D Lock should also be looped through the bike’s wheel and the rack to further deter thieves. For further security, you can visit your local hardware store to source tamper proof bolts to install your rack.
We do not recommend leaving your bikes unattended or within easy reach in full public view even when locked, as it is almost impossible to prevent brazen professional theft from occurring. We also recommend not showing your bikes home location when recording rides using tracking apps or GPS apps. If you do want to share your home location make sure only you and your trusted friends can see your posts as thieves have become more sophisticated, following your posts to locate your bikes and using technology to mimic your door access and stealing bikes from inside garages and homes when you are not at home.
