I used to run a heavy chain through my bike frame ( with sections of inner tube covering where the chain contacted the frame ) to a support post for the back stairs. Then a big pad lock.
Don't know If my car and bike will fit in my parking, I like the idea of sticker hahaha, do you guys think the locking device on the rear rotor would be enough? I will have to ask if I can chain it to the concrete to my janitor. And last do you think a big *** chain between the wheel would be enough ?

I cut a 6" x 6" piece of 3/8 steel plate. Drilled a 3/8" hole in each corner. Welded a 6" long piece of 2" steel pipe (laying on its side) to the middle of the plate. Drilled 4 3/8" steel anchors into the concrete of my front porch and attached the fabricated plate. Run a giant fabric wrapped chain through the pipe and then through my bike frame.
Add a disc lock with a siren and a boxer named Bocephus to the mix and I sleep very well. No need to discuss what happens if all the commotion involved in trying to rip-off my ride wakes me up.

Disc locks are great for parking in public places during the day. A chain through the frame is your best option at night.
In the 80's in Tulsa, crews would show up in a pickup and literally toss bikes in the back of the truck. They were in and out within 30 seconds. The bikes would either disappear completely or end up a skeleton in a chop-shop. Of course the parts would be scattered across the bikes of Outlaws, Mongols or Rogues.
In Tokyo, it was common so see just a wheel and tire safely secured to a railing but no other trace of the bike. If you use a chain, wrap it through the frame. Even then, chain can be cut. Bocephus is a good added measure.
Love the white Low Rider dude. Giorgious !

When I lived in an rental I had the same problem and lived in a sketchy neighborhood. My property manager was rather cool though and let me seat an anchor in the ground near the sidewalk and broken thing that was called a driveway. This anchor was one of those screw in anchors like they use to support power poles (except shorter). I then ran a chain through the eye and then through the frame. I drove it deep enough that it would not be hit by the lawnmower and also could be buried easily when I moved and not leave a trace.

I just picked up a Xena alarmed disc lock and a chain adapter for my NY large link style.
