Those are cool.
I have actually considered getting one engraved like a Road ID with appropriate information for emergencies, and to identify the bike in case it wanders away.

I think most "casual" thieves would not even think about looking for ID like that.

They do if you carry a multitool or tool kit in your underseat bag. My friend had his new Koolstop brake pads/holders stolen. Another friend had his 12 year old Brooks saddle stolen in Illinois while participating in AC Northern Tier tour. I speculate that a "casual" thief carries the appropriate tools of his/her trade.

One little thing though, those really are pants guards, arent they? Cool site, but I already have custom valve stem caps.
