Anyone into mountain bikes ? Need a good bike lock + general advice.
Ive just bought a mountain bike, this should be a laugh as i aint rode a bike for about 15 years. 
I need a good bike lock, can anyone suggest one ?
Also i'm thinking of getting a trip computer, again can anyone suggest a good one.
Post some maintenance tips as well if you have any, cheers.

Ok, I have a cat eye trip computer which is wireless, works very well, nice clean display shows speedo and a clock which is all I need 99% of the time, it also logs av speed, top speed etc. coat about £30 I think, only thing it lacks which I would like is a back light.
For locks I have 2 for different uses, I have a cheap cable lock which I use in cycle point in Leeds which is a secure parking building at the train station but needs a lock on bike for it to be insured by them.
I also have a big heavy chain and padlock, it's crude but you would need an angle grinder to get it off! It's heavy but 100% reliable.
