I am an american but i think it works like this:

• streets are bike friendly
• more reasonable to just bike everywhere so everyone does
• city may provide free bikes to use
• more demand for bikes, more competition, less expensive bikes
• less bike theft in general as a result
• these aren’t $4k+ bespoke bikes
• something something socialized healthcare something something better labor laws something something higher taxes but a better quality of life. Why steal? Be happy.

We don’t have these things here. Except for expensive bikes, that’s all we have. That’s why I got these boltcutters…
