Bike security
When you purchase your bike:- Get your bike electronically tagged or coded if you can. Contact your local cycle retailer for advice
- Buy a good quality lock such as a D-Lock, extension cable or heavy chain lock – ask your cycle retailer for advice
- Keep a record of your frame number
- Take a photograph of your bike so you have an accurate description if it gets stolen
When you park your bike:
- lock your bike wherever you leave it, no matter how long you may be away. It only takes seconds to steal a bicycle
- always secure your bike at home
- remember to lock the frame and both wheels
- always secure your bike to a stand or an immovable object
