Hey so I know you already ordered that lock combo, and if you think you're going to be happy with that, I can definitely understand. However when I rode a bike on campus, I used two of this lock.
The reason I used two was so that I could use one lock to secure the wheel and frame to the rack and then use the other lock to secure one wheel and the frame to another part of the rack.
It sounds a little paranoid, but it ended up paying off. I always left my bike overnights (and weekends) on campus and there were two failed attempts to steal my bike. I know this because there were marks on the bars from where they tried to apply bolt cutters and then the second time, one of the locks was slightly bent out of it's original shape because someone tried to pry it off with some sort of lever.
So basically, just saying that the lock I used was freaking awesome because it held off two theft attempts and when you use two, you know that neither of your wheels will go walking off either.
Although if you think you'll be safe with the combo your using I can understand that.
