One thing confused me about this. In major American cities bike theft is incredibly common, to the point that the police won't help at all.
I've had bikes repeatedly stolen out of locked garages at home!
I'd never buy a bike that was worth any reasonable amount of money, my commute pre-covid was a good candidate for an electric bike, but no way would I spend more than a 2 or 3 hundred dollars on something that will get stolen within 3 years.

Is bike theft just less of a problem in Belgium?
