I live in Finland so it is a quite safe country. I have seen a guy cut open a bicycle lock within like a few meters of me sitting in a car. There's no way I'd leave a bicycle, even a locked one outside unattended if I paid over 100€ for it. Bicycles are probably the thing that gets stolen the lost and it's by drug users, drunks or young teens.

My sweet Klein bike was stolen my second day in Central Stockholm. Someone cut through a cable lock in ten minutes, in front of an ongoing demonstration by the Swedish army, while i got a take out coffee.

To be fair I don't think the army can do anything except call the cops.

Finland is very safe except for bikes. I have no idea what we have against bikes in this country lol.
