Saws don't care about the pins in the lock.

If the frame is sawn, that kinda defeats the rationale for theft.
To note, there's many levels of bike theft, some will steal for parts.

You'll hear from people getting their seat post or rear wheel stolen for instance. Yes, seriously.

The bike in the article doesn’t do much to prevent component theft. The frame is the difference maker.
Another commenter suggested sawing the seat post.
I am curious about that too. Will the bike take a standard replacement seatpost?
The joke’s on you: there is no standard seat post size!
Haha, I don't mean that there is a single universal size. I was trying to figure out if it's using a propriety seatpost as that's becoming more common.
