Really expensive bikes you just don&#x27;t ever lock anywhere in public. I don&#x27;t know anyone in Vancouver who would lock a $3500 road or mountain bike anywhere. You&#x27;re either in possession of it or it&#x27;s in your garage. There are B&amp;E teams who break into garages in metro van looking for peoples&#x27; MTB collection, so this doesn&#x27;t really solve the problem, but then you&#x27;ve got alarm systems, bars on windows, house insurance etc.
