Wheel hub quickstarter
I rarely park my bike anywhere where it needs to be locked up (so I'm fine with QR skewers), but saw this kickstarter yesterday, and thought some people here might find it useful.

Doesn't do anything to secure the rest of the bike, and is easy to foil with a pair of vice grips.

Yeah,Pitlock and Pinhead do the same thing. The tool looks cool,but I don't see these doing anything different.
