Thanks for your views, useful.
Both Newcombe Brothers and Ron Parkinson in Colchester were promoting the Bike-trac as opposed to an alarm (just read up about it in the last 20mins - genius!). Defo sold with this.
The lifting and throwing into the van thing was self-evident when my last Fridays bike pick-up service had no ramp to get the bike into the van...so now I'm getting a little nervous and am thinking a solid bike anchor is in order when at it's permanent residence, in addition to current chains.
Due to being on the move all the time, I need to find someone who can install a decent anchor on my behalf (happy to cross palms with silver). The cylindrical anchor I saw in Newcombes is about 2-3 foot long, which needs to be set in concrete. I'm thinking you need a numatic drill to dig down to the required depth inc a bag of cement. Can't see doing this by a hand chisel. Hmmm... more research required on this.
