What happens if I wrap it in tinfoil before I cut the cable?

  A few thoughts on this: Firstly, maybe the cable is part of the antennae, thus negating this issue? Secondly, maybe there's a heartbeart, the absence of which triggers an alert? Finally, in practical terms, this probably won't become a problem until all bikes have upgraded. To deter a thief you don't need perfect security: you just need better security than the next potential victim.

    1) Would be clever but from the design it does not look likely. 2) Definitely possible although it would have to be pretty frequent to be useful in practice. 3) Unless your bike happens to be the most attractive target around.
