NGL, if I owned a $10k bike, I’d be too worried to even ride it. I’ve heard of carbon bikes snapping from simply being knocked the wrong way. LOL
I get stressed out leaving my cheap hybrid out even with two locks. In my city, a $10k would disappear real fast. I don’t need that stress.
lol. I use two diamond rated u-locks to keep my $150 90s mtb secure. The value of my bike(s) go well beyond their monetary worth.
So, if it was stolen, my insurance wouldn’t pay out enough to replace it. Therefore, prevention is my priority.
But a $10k bike? Any tiny damage would not only devalue it considerably, but could end up costing hundreds to fix. I find no joy in entertaining that thought 😂
