Yes...you'll get quite a good lock for that...
BUT...I would never leave my 'best' bike anywhere public, locked or not. No padlock is infallible, and if your bike is worth a bit, it'll go missing.
So when I go out, or go to town, anywhere that I'm going to leave my bike, I take my cheap and cheerful mountain bike, removing the saddle when I lock it up.
I'm pretty sure you can get a very very good D-lock for that money.
Although I'd be tempted to buy 'just' a good one and a good combination one.
That way you have the ability to secure both wheels to the frame and the frame to something.
As well as giving would be thieves 2 different locks to break.
Can buy 2 Kryptonite locks for around £50 on Wiggle, thieves can break into almost anything nowadays, if they try hard enough they can always get it, mind you I always use my cheaper bike to cycle to work.
This Thread feels like a tranquil garden in the middle of a war zone atm.

I hate changing tyres/inner tubes on race bikes. My thumbs are killing me now.

I'm still searching for an old BSA racing bike frame! Please check your sheds...
Doubt any of you will remember but a while back I was on here making noises about building myself a bike.. well I've just bought myself the frame for it! Don't know if any of you are interested in watching me build it up or not but if you are I will continue to post my progress. Attached is a few photos of the frame as it is, I'm going to strip it down and re paint it. Any suggestions on colour? Cheers
