        Most secure
        
        Chain Locks
        
        Quote: "Chain links with a diameter of 16mm or more are considered bolt cutter proof and are virtually impossible to defeat with anything other than power tools."
        
        Quote: Whilst a 16mm chain sounds ideal, you’d struggle to carry one with you whilst cycling
        
        Quote: "There are several smaller chains that can be considered portable, just remember that thinner links will ultimately result in a lower level of security for your bike."
        
        Quote: If you’re looking for a portable chain lock you’ll probably want to look for a lock with 10-12mm links. These won’t be too heavy to carry, but will still provide a good level of protection for your bike."
        
        Quote: "The Kryptonite 1055 Mini uses 10mm 3T hardened manganese steel and offers Sold Secure Gold rated security."
        
        Folding Lock
        
        The ABUS Bordo 6500, one of the best folding bike locks, uses several 5.5mm plates made from a “specially hardened steel”.

        The majority of folding locks have a soft outer rubber casing which prevents the hardened metal inside from ruining your bike’s paintwork.
        
        Quote: "If you need a portable, high-security bike lock, there may be no better option than a folding bike lock."
