What stops them from just lifting the entire bike away? (especially given that it's so light). Of course, the obvious solution is to chain it to something, but not every location has a convenient place to chain your bike (without it getting in the way of pedestrians etc).
The rad runner is 70+ lbs, while not necessarily heavy, it is cumbersome to move around when both tires are immovable from the wheel lock (through rear wheel) and folding lock (through front wheel, bike frame, & bike post). Where I live there is always a bike post conveniently located nearby to lock it to.
I didn't know there was such a thing. Surely by making it prohibitively heavy to just lift into a car, you also make it too heavy to ride easily
