A friend of mine got his $5k bike stolen in the middle of downtown Mountain View in plain sight.

If you don't use something like an ABUS 37/80 + 14KS, your shit is going to get jacked in Oakland because of zillions of thieves with portable angle grinders in backpacks and teams riding around in vans looking for easy marks.

Don't leave anything valuable outside in Oakland unless you want it to disappear because people on drugs are always looking for property to convert into their next fix.

Get bike insurance, for this exact reason! Your renter's insurance might also cover bike theft.
