I live in bicycle heavy Malmö and a part of growing street wise here is to know how and where to secure your bike. It's really risk mitigation since portable bike locks have limited security. But it works for me and my 2014 Specialized Awol daily driver for everything from city to camping.
But a hugely important factor are well designed bike racks. My favorite is the steel loop that comes up from the ground, like a long U.[1] There are tons of variations but the point is to have a solid point to anchor the bike with your lock. In my case I mostly want to save the frame, but a longer chain and I could probably save a wheel. Gotta balance comfort and security too tho
