      Yeah that’s my point. We don’t exactly live in a “oh it’s stolen, oh well” time.

        Paint it with extra rust and stick some exposed wires on it for +15 to theft resistance.

      but wages have not…

      This makes me appreciate the UK minimum wage rising faster than inflation over the past several years.

      A weeks work at minimum wage will get you a pretty decent bike. Not a carbon race bike, but a good bike for general riding.
