Default Bike lock (bike stolen)

It's one reason why I don't use expensive bikes. I have 2. One is
semi-decent and the other is one which no one in their right mind
will steal. It looks tatty but functions as well as any other bike.


I've now got a Dahon folder - allegedly no one steals them! Back in
Twickenham I looked out my first floor office window to see some
low-life cutting through my bike lock: when I opened the window and
shouted at him he told me to mind my own business - fortunately he ran
off when confronted leaving the bike. It was only a cheap Chinese-made
one bought off eBay for £90 or so. Where do they end up?
