It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

What do you do for your bike security when in a parkade?

I was looking at bike racks that can slow down or make it tedious for theives.

I'm about to get an e-bike and my parkade has a bike theft problem :(

Get a used bike or ugly up your own bike and buy a Skunklock Chemical: If they try to cut your ulock they will be punished.

Also consider an alarm, brake locks, tracker, and secondary cut resistant lock.

They also sell security bolts for things like seat posts and wheels: If you do not take them off, lock them to your bike and/or use security bolts.

Alternately, go with a transportable folding bike like a Tern, Brompton, Dahon, etc. if folding it up and taking it with you is an option.
