Keep your bike maintained- especially the brakes. Use a U-lock type device to secure your bike. Bikes locked with cables or small chains are frequently stolen. When locking your bike, secure both the frame and wheels to a bike rack. Report suspicious activity or loitering around bike racks.
Thieves usually carry a hidden bolt cutter or other cutting tool.
Campus Security rents and sells high quality bike locks. Bicycles are not to be stored on any balcony, fire escape, or stairwell of any University property. Students who reside in Residence Halls should contact their Resident Assistant for information on bike storage. Click here for information on General Safety Tips .
