Abus Granit X would be my choice, you should be able to attach to the frame with supplied bracket

You might want to get a cable too to secure the front wheel a bit if it has QR skewers

Another solution (not for very high risk areas) could be a Hiplok, goes round your waist. There is a Gold version too but closer to £80

Unfortunately, strong locks are heavy
