> Yes, they could steal the front wheel, but it's hardly worth the effort. It's difficult to sell, and you can't get away quickly. That doesn't seem to be the case where I live (South-central Indiana). It's common to see abandoned bikes locked to the rack with the front wheel missing. I once went to the public library for an hour and came out to find my front wheel had been stolen. I'd rather lock my frame and front wheel than my frame and rear wheel.
