margarita SG 2 bikes in three months and when I reported to police, they say bicycle theft rate is very high now.
sohguanh SG Yours is a mountain bike or racer? Or izit those china ppl ride those bikes with basket behind or in front? Me got a small foldable bike and I also scared stolen
de_middle SG I never put my bicycle outside my place, even resorted to cycling to my frens place to house it there but now its in my backyard. Those padlock cutters are strong enough to cut thru anything.
margarita SG cheap market bike and that's wat irritates me. how much can they get out of it? This time round they only stole my front wheel, how much can you get out from a wheel? cheap bicycle also want to steal for wat?
ditzy SG Mine got stolen about a month back, but it's ok, I was trying to get rid of it anyway. I'm risking my own life whenever I take it out for a ride.
margarita SG below my block at the bicycle stand. First bicycle I used a thin cable lock so they cut the lock. Second bicycle i used a thick cable lock, they tried to cut the lock but was unsuccessful (got mark on the cable). So they took my front wheel instead.
margarita SG I guess if I get a new bike, it will be a mini bike or a foldable bike that I can keep in the house .. so irritating.
sohguanh SG That is why I keep the bike inside my HDB flat or for my neighbors secured them with lock just right outside the door. Never try parking them underneath the HDB flat
ditzy SG The standard way of locking is to pull the locking cable round the wheel and frame to the stand. This way it's harder to steal the front wheel, don't worry about the back, coz its already a headache by itself.
margarita SG since steal should steal something more expensive mah .. how much can they get out of one wheel .. besides who will buy one wheel?
skeujin SG mine was stolen right outside my house in the middle of the afternoon. guess they been watch my house for some time. also a cheap knock off MTB so i dont tink the kids will want it. mostly ive been noticing lotsa foreign workers riding bicycles.
margarita SG yah .. i ony get to learn this after they took away my wheel .. now where am i going to find one wheel to replace?
Kenashi SG yi pai liang shan both lose out!! they can't get the bike they oso don't want u to carry on riding it
sohguanh SG I think to be real safe is to park your bicycle within your house. That is assuming you have space in your living room to put the bicycle. For me I have and I have is a foldable bike. Once unfolded it looks so tiny and low so ride outside ppl may laugh at your puny size bike
