I'm in a large city on the west coast. Here are the bike lock measures I've landed on, in order of priority:

  1. Kryptonite New York Chain Lock with Noose - This is for locking my frame to the bike rack. The chain requires approx. 3 minutes to get through with an angle grinder, which means your bike is harder to steal than almost any other bike you could park next to. 7lbs, but worth the peace of mind, IMHO. Besides, the extra weight just means better exercise.
  2. Locking skewers like these to lock my wheels to my frame. Lots of options out there now though.
  3. Seat post collar tightened with a hex bolt (instead of quick release)
  4. A small chain lock to lock my saddle to my frame.
  5. Because I have nice components, and my city is ridiculously bad with theft to the point that I've had people try to steal my brakes, I also have Pitlick Pit Stopers on the hex bolts securing my major components (saddle, brakes, derailleurs). This is excessive, but like I said, peace of mind.

    I'm also very careful about where I park my bike, what I lock my bike to.

    In theory, what lock you need depends on where you will be parking your bike and for how long. If your bike is going into an office building parking garage with active parking attendants nearby and restricted public access, a u-lock alone may suffice. But if your bike is going to be parked in a publicly-accessible space at a bike rack, then you need some serious protection.

    In any event, remember that bike theft will eventually strike you. Either don't ride what you can't afford replace, or get insurance to cover the risk of loss.
