Forget folding locks. They're too easy to break.

I think that bike theft should be handled the way that horse theft was handled in the wild west.

Yeah, I’ve been following LPL’s videos and it seems like securing a bike with a lock from even a moderately determined attacker seems to be a hopeless task.
All you have to do is make the bike slightly less attractive for theft than the next one, which is not too hard if you often park next to other bikes.
