Having your bike stolen is definitely worse than seeing it's mauled remains after a crash.

The Abus Granit Detecto X-Plus 8077 alarm produces a high-pitched sound of over 100 dB, fairly easy to recognize and hear in most situations, alerting owner or passers-by about the tampering. The disc brake recognition system makes sire the alarm does not go off when the lock in in your topcase, and the hardened steel construction and patented X-Plus cylinder make sure the Abus Granit Detecto X-Plus 8077 is a nut that's really hard to crack.

This lock also has a diagnose LED and comes with two keys (one with LED) and standard AAA batteries for the alarm function. Multiple locks can work with the same key when ordered based on the key code. The Abus Granit Detecto X-Plus 8077 retails for €144.95 ($187), transport pouch included.
