I think it works perfect for me. I leave the cable (light by the way) wrapped around the frame and thru the chair so I wouldnt need to remove the chair. I also lock my front wheel to the frame with the U-Lock and remove the quick release. I run the thex super chain thru the back wheel and frame and on the unmovable pole. Lights turn on at night where I park it so I am quite confident the bike will not grow legs on me.
Compare to other peoples bikes parked my look the toughest. I see bikes with only cable locks on them. Not as awesome though.
Thanks
