In Amsterdam a friend of mine observed that the combined weight of bicycle and a lock strong enough to ensure that it will not be stolen is a constant.

We still haven't figured out the depth of this observation, does he mean that the lock is so heavy that the weight of the bike is negligible or does he mean that as the weight of the bike goes down the weight of the lock must go up...

Lighter bikes are more expensive ... so a larger/heavier lock is required
