| Comment | Whether they try again's down to the individual. I can't tell you that they won't. :/
Replacing the lock at least means that they aren't now fully aware of the bike's security. They're back to square one on that.
If you do buy a lock, search the model on Youtube first. There's channels that just make videos on how to get past them - which is one reason why changing to a new one may be a good idea (if they now know what you're using).
But frankly, most of the stuff out there can be taken off in seconds if a person knows what they're doing. If they don't, then they'll just use brute force, which'll take longer depending on their tools.
So the lock's there more to slow someone down in order for you to have time to respond. In which case alarms, lights, or well, just more things getting in the way of starting the bike up help I suppose. That's probably the realm for more specialist subreddits though - bike, lockpicking, security ones, etc - if you want to create a thread there asking for advice. |
