How do I lock my bike correctly?

Always with a suitable lock to a fixed, immovable object such as a bike rack or lamppost, so that your bike can't simply be carried away. This applies everywhere, whether in the basement, the park or outside a café. Otherwise, theft isn't covered.

• The lock encloses the frame and ideally also a wheel.
• The object is firmly anchored and can't be easily removed or dismantled.

How sturdy the lock must be is explained under "Which bike lock is sufficient?".
