I'm considering trying to put one of those alarmed long cable locks (like they have in retail bike shops) into my garage just as an additional security measure.

I thought there would be a reasonable choice of these things, but all I can really find is https://store.lockalarm.com/product/cable-lock-ala...

It does look quite good, but wondered if anyone had any alternatives they use or would recommend I consider.

Cheers, Griff

You'll sleep through it.

Trust me. You'll only wake for a house or car alarm as they ring outdoors. Anything inside a building won't be high enough to rouse you.

Personally my best bike lives inside the house in a bike bag with the wheels elsewhere.

Best bike - in house

Commuter - in shed with proper motorcycle chain looped through a bucket of concrete

If they want it they can have it but thats a decent, convenient and cost effective solution in my opinion

Cheers
