for those concerned with locking it up outside...a few pro tips:
How big of a lock would you need?
I'm a fan of the Kryptonite New York series personally. They're super heavy duty...I can't imagine cutting through one...There's a 4x8 and a 4x10.25
I use the 4x8 to lock my frame and back wheel, and one of these bad boys to lock my front wheel to the frame.
It's overkill...I know...but I'm in New York.
Amazon is actually very reasonably priced on all of those by the way...if you're looking to order online.
The Kryptonite I use is a U-lock. Pretty heavy duty and heavy.

The cable is to lock the wheels and seat, not the bike itself. The bike is locked by the U-Lock.
Trackr is just Bluetooth based. I work too far away from my bike. I was thinking more along the lines of a TK102-2 (original) with an iOT Sim. There is also a satellite based one: Spot Trace. Costs $100/year in service in addition to the device and sends a ping every 5 minutes.
