I was lurking 2ch /n/ and the elves were discussing using removable pedals as an additional deterrent for bike thieves. Like the ones that have a quick release connector and are seen usually on folding bikes.
It's pretty smart actually, because a thief would think twice about jacking a bike when he sees it has no pedals and he can't just b-line it out of there on it once he cuts the lock.
