I’m the opposite: I ride entry level bikes with good locks.
For real! The only bike I’m willing to lock up anywhere is worth much less than the lock(s) protecting it.
I’d still hate to lose it. Thieves could steal my car, and it would be more like “thank god, take the fucking thing!”. But my bike? Man, that would hurt me to the core.

If I caught someone trying to steal my bike or car I’d probably take it pretty personally but yeah, I think I might be angrier about the bicycle.
