Abus d-lock

Have not got the Abus x-plus 54 D lock and this seems to be as solid as they come. It's a good fit around the frame or the wheels to a bike post and looks pretty difficult to get hold of.

It's not light (it does come with a holder) but then again I look at some of the cheaper models (the 54 was £65) and they don't look like they would stand up to much.

I'm due to take some pics of various items and I'll post them up.

I also use a squire padlock and a squire chain http://www.squirelocks.co.uk/html/strongchains.htm which are previously used on my motorbike. Together with the Abus they make the bike a real pain in the butt to take but even I know its not impossible.

So I am considering either alphadot http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/67/2294
or Datatag http://www.datatag.co.uk/ as a marking system.

I may even call Essex Police and see if they will stamp the frame with my postcode. http://www.essex.police.uk/ I can't see anything on their site but that doesn't mean its not there.
