I was impressed when I was in Amsterdam last year, these back wheel locks are on virtually every bike. Attaches directly to the frame, when locked runs a bar through the back wheel locking it to the frame so your chain was saved for the frame and front wheel. My bike is getting outfitted with one as soon as I land over there, and coming home with me.

I don't know why they aren't even visible in America, I think they could be incredibly popular with commuters over uber long cables.
