lph, i wish what you said was true. My son had a beater bike stolen - his cable lock was cut and left on the ground. It depends on where you are. here in seattle, if it has two wheels and tires that aren't flat, it is tempting for thieves for whatever reason.

My ID/library card/cash/ibuprofen/keys don't fit very comfortably in pockets. If I really wanted to travel light, I think a belt pack, handlebar pack or under seat pack would be the way to go for a chain lock.
My U-lock came with a fitting so it could just hook on the frame... but it's for a steel frame bike, not an aluminum fatty like mine. If your bike has a lighter frame, a U-lock might be easier to manage than the chain.
