I still always run a Citadel U-lock through the front wheel and the frame, figuring the back wheel’s more time-consuming to remove.

In NYC, I added a long-shackle padlock through the rear wheel and the seat stays. Sure enough, some mutt stole all 4 brake shoes while I was visiting up on West End Ave. But that’s about all he could get.

Last time in NYC I saw saddles attached to frames with riveted drive chain.

BS? If not – why?
