So, I was given a bike. Which is great, because I don't yet have a driver's license, and need this alternate form of travel in case I can't get a ride.
This also means I need to invest in a bike lock. What I'm getting so far is that I should get a u-lock for the rear wheel and another lock for the front wheel. At the same time...there doesn't seem to be a lot of places around here (particularly the little district where I'm going to go to look for work) that I could place my bike where a u-lock would fit. So...what then?
Also, what should I expect to pay for a good bike lock, and where should I get one? Right now I have barely any income, so I can't afford much. (I'm working on getting a job, but...I need a bike to get a job and I need a bike lock to make sure I can keep the bike in my ownership, so...yes.)
