Can you snap a steering lock?

[HungusMaximist]

At the end of the day, you do what you think it's the best for your bike.

I have a fucken huge chain that weighs about 10 kgs but I certainly don't carry that aroudn with me everytime I park my bike.

I chuck on a disc lock with a reminder cable, kill switch, steering lock, and chuck it into gear. If you want (not gonna make a world of difference), you can also turn the fuel tap switch to off but you better remember to switch it back on!

I park my bike nearly everyday in the city, but it's always at the safest location (with specific bike ground anchors where you can loop chains around), hidden away from the public.

I'd go at night with two links of stainless chain, a stainless coachbolt and some 2 pack epoxy, drill your hole and hey presto! ground anchor for under $20! Carry a curly cable and padlock with you, there are ones light enough you can cycle with them but are still 10mm thick. It's not impossible to get into that setup but it can't be picked up and biffen in a van which is the most common way it'll get nicked if it's being targeted.

I saw a vid on youtube recently where a guy leant against someone's bike, put one foot on the handle bar and smashed the steering lock. It only took him a few seconds, so yes, those things can be broken!
