Comments about OnGuard Locking Skewer Set:
The metal loop meant to secure the key to a keyring is soft, bends easily and will let the key fall off your keyring, never to be seen again.
When this happens, a hammer and centerpunch will remove the lock from your bike in seconds.
You might as well use a cheap combination cable lock instead.

Comments about OnGuard Locking Skewer Set:
As a previous reviewer noted, the price on these locking skewers is not that competitive with Delta Axle Rodz, but there's a clear difference in quality. The OnGuard Locking Skewers just feel like a much better quality. The Delta Axle Rodz can be removed with a standard Allen wrench while the OnGuard Locking Skewers use a special key. This of course helps protect your wheels from getting stolen, but also means that you'll have to keep the key around, since it's pretty much unique to your set of skewers. You can register your key with the manufacturer and get a replacement if you lose it. Yes, these skewers are expensive, but if you have a little patience and look around, you can sometimes find them on sale for around half the regular price. At that level, they are very competitive with the Delta Axle Rodz.

Great solution for preventing theft of your wheels and seat. But...
I kinda wish they also sold it without the saddle lock for those whose bikes don't have a QR lever for the saddle. Otherwise the Delta Cycle Axelrodz are more cost effective.
