It will get worse, yeah, as times get tougher.
It's usually young males, acting on impulse
(my bike was stolen by an opportunist, a teenager, two months ago,
miraculously, it was recovered by my LBS, who knew the bike, and alerted me)
Bike theft has always, always been the same problem.
Your read any of the antique bike journals of the late 1800's,
and you see "bicycle stolen", over and again.
Bike locks were made from the earliest days.
My loss was my fault, I left the bike unlocked for one minute.

OK, I just applied a comment to that video's comment section,
I will now go to their website.
Here's the video in player-window form,
How does it work? Was that a "demo", or an actual bait-and-hook operation?
Nice job, good logo page, too. Thanks.
My bike was stolen, I had it marked and customized,
and known to all in my area, the LBS recovered it two weeks later.
Lucky me. See video response?
