Yea, it looked like a disc lock but was used to lock the chain. I didn't actually see what it locked to on the bike, I assume he put it through the frame.
I'm not a huge fan of disc locks, I figure if the bad guy doesn't see it, when he tries to take the bike, he's give up and leave you with all sorts of wheel/fork damage.
And, if I can forget to take the keys with me, imagine what I could do if I forgot the disc lock. I know they have those bright colored 'slinky' handlebar reminders, but I still don't trust myself.
I'm thinking of a Lo-Jac. I'm gonna check them out and see if I can get a discount on my ins. with one, eventually getting a payback. That may be the way to go. Anyone else use one? It won't make the bike theft-proof, but at least it should make it more recoverable.
