There are specific techniques for locking a bike up properly, but it does need a d-lock and possibly also a cable. The idea being that your bike is the least attractive to steal. http://lifehacker.com/5942301/the-proper-way-to-lock-your-bi...

Well that's my point. An e-bike would be a lot more attractive to steal.
