My bike got stolen and the police didn't care: I'd have paid full price for my favourite lock but it's unmissable with this Big Deals Day deal

Seatylock Foldylock Compact bike lock.

It was after getting my beloved single speed town bike stolen that I decided I needed to up my lock game. While the bike wasn't at all expensive it fitted my needs perfectly. As I began to piece together it's replacement I promised myself that along with the new parts I need to complete the build I'd also invest in one of the best bike locks. I decided on the OnGuard Pitbull.

The Pitbull is a no-nonsense U-lock that's offered in a few different sizes to fit your needs, including an option that includes a cable lock, too. I opted for the Mini version as it fitted in my bag easily and weighs under 3lbs or 1.3kg. Vitally it carries a Sold Secure Diamond rating that means it's resistant to bolt cutters and other tools of the bike theft trade.
