Interesting alternative to a normal disk lock

No bike lock to carry (which is an issue for some bikes), but I fear for the lock mechanism for those that ride in all weathers.

Anyone got one of these?

Any comments?

You'd have to assume that it's made of a fairly heavy metal, which would increase your unsprung mass. This would result in a negative affect on handling, but a positive affect on rider comfort.
