how long is your commute? if it's short enough, I'd go fixed gear or single speed. wheels are bolted to the bike then, so that should help. plus there's less stuff overall to steal from it, and most of the components are pretty inexpensive. plus it's easier to maintain a single speed/fixed drivetrain that faces weather regularly, versus a geared one. could even go with a belt drive.
sorry your new lock up situation isn't ideal. but hey, at least you can commute to work. I live far enough away that it's not a reasonable thing to do. but if I did, I could just bring my bike into my office. figures, right?
