you know it actually looks VERY EASY. I'm not saying it is, but it screams out to a potential thief as an opportunity. I wouldn't want to come back to my bike with a half sawed rear wheel
I personally put a u-lock through my front wheel and downtube, then I put a cable through the back wheel.. My saddle is too cheap to worry about

im sure the crack head trying to sell a stolen bike for 20$ doesn't know or care.
