You’re riding somewhere new and far from home. You know you’ll be stopping for a coffee, lunch or afternoon beverage, but not sure whether you’ll be able to keep eyes on your bike. What do you do? Traditional bike locks are simply too bulky and awkward to carry, and there’s no space on your frame to mount anything. What’s the alternative?

Pocket locks, or as I’m calling them, cafe locks are one answer. Working on the concept that any lock is better than no lock, these small security devices can fit into a jersey pocket, weigh next to nothing and offer some protection against opportunistic thieves. Certainly, such a small lock won’t withstand a committed attack, but they may just stop a life battler from riding off with your happiness machine.

I tested eight popular pocket-sized locks to find which is best. And with that, present alternate methods, tips and tricks which may achieve similar results.
