I am pretty sure you don't use two frame lock
What's the other one?
Some of the Dutch bikes seem to have an integrated U shaped rear wheel lock integrated with the frame.
Can you asses the ruggedness of that?
Sounds like an excellent time to test ride one of them.
Sorry,
frame lock and a
chain lock for example.
To give you an idea, ABUS rates their best ring/frame lock as a
Level 9/15 protection with its 8.5mm hardened steel rod.
Their cable lock with covered 25mm covered cable lock is a
Level 9/15 as well.
Their best U-lock is
Level 15/15 Protection with 13mm hardened steel.
Their best chain lock is
Level 15/15 Protection with 10mm hexagonal hardened steel links.
It's good enough for a quick run into the shop and prevents the rear wheel from being taken away but overnight I would always add a chain. They can be removed or broken but you will need power tools and time to do so.
For me it is a must on a commuter bike.
