In my days of going to college back in the 70's, the best ant-theft device I had was my own two eyes for my beloved road bike. I would never let my bicycle out of my sight, except on the days I rode my old 1966 Raleigh three-speed bike, of which I did lock up outside with other bicycles. I took it to the bathroom, all my classes and to my bank without incident nor questions from other people around me.
@Anthony, If you can keep your Homer in your classroom or office for a couple hours with your two eyes as your bike lock, I would do it. Now that I own a Clem, my first Rivendell bicycle, I treasure it a lot in many ways. Once again, I do not leave it out of my sight. Upon my car, if I am transporting my bike from my home to another location to ride, I have a modified elongated Yakima Raptor bike tray with a knob locking keyed mechanism to secure the bike. Additionally, I have a thick cable lock that I run through the frame and up through the support arm and down under the tray. Kim Hetzel, who is susceptible to high anxiety of not wanting to have my bike stolen.
