    Thick as Thieves

    60 seconds will do 3 locks. The police know who the thieves are here though, so they can't "go equipped". Spot a bike, then go get the tools. but Angle-grinder man (Homo Molendi Angulare) is interested in the big money. Crappy retrobike e-stays ubrake in flouro livery is of little interest...

    Thick as Thieves

    These would last around 5 or 20 seconds in Bristol Usually twisted until it bursts - bare hands only required. But a cable cutter will nibble through in about 25 seconds. This kind of lock is maybe ok where you don't have professional bike thieves.

    Does Tha Ride Tandem?

    I'd suggest a 142x12 modern hub, with a 142long 12/10mm tubular sleeve, then a 10mm axle through that - bolt up or qr. As it's a steel frame, I'd also suggest brazing a disc mount on - cheaper and better than an arai drum brake, and as many have pointed out in this thread, better brakes...

    Flying Scot Deepest North-ish Scotland £500
