When I had a bike and lived in an apartment complex, I made sure it was the bottom floor and fairly accessible because my bike was in the living room when I wasn't riding it. That was my sacrifice for piece of mind.
As for that video, there's not much you can do. That's the one time you want a nosy person around. I suppose a proximity/level sensor may have helped but 26 seconds is pretty fast depending on how far you are from the bike.
Fuck thieves.

1. People are stupid... in both cases where my bike was hit while it was parked. People stuck around to tell me about it... but nobody took down a plate number.
2. In the video.. you can see that they sat there for 2 min waiting for the street to be clear before shoving the bike in the van. So there was really nobody to get a plate.

yeah, once a bike is gone, its pretty much gone for good
i've only known ONE person who had one of his bikes stolen and actually got it back 2 days later while he was riding his other bike, the bike stolen had ALOT of money into it. The dumbass that stole it thought it'd be a good idea to ride it around the city. My buddy was riding with like 20 others and the chased dude down to a 7/11 and beat the shit out of him and had him arrested(they filed a police report the day before, so evidence was there)

2 things to say to this.
1. People are stupid... in both cases where my bike was hit while it was parked. People stuck around to tell me about it... but nobody took down a plate number.
2. In the video.. you can see that they sat there for 2 min waiting for the street to be clear before shoving the bike in the van. So there was really nobody to get a plate.
