I will get a code for each wrench. If you lose it, you can probably get another copy.

- Gray 2010 carbon WSD road bike, Rivet Independence saddle
- Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle
- Royal blue 2018 aluminum gravel bike, Rivet Pearl saddle
Gone but not forgotten:
- Silver 2003 aluminum road bike
- Two awesome worn out Juliana saddles
Not for me - the places I ride and the people I ride with, a cheap cable around the frame is overkill.
But I'd suggest packaging at least two wrenches with each skewer set, for just the reasons others have mentioned. Raise the price if you have to, but even hypothetically I wouldn't consider a product like that unless it *came* with a spare "key." Someone might lose their wrench years down the road, and no offense, but companies don't tend to stay in business as long as metal parts last ...
ETA: I'd also suggest modifying the design of the wrench so that it could be put on a key ring without having to take it off to use it. Just a little loop on one end or the other would be enough.

The current plan is to have bundle with skewers and etc. with a small raise in the price. And it is already modified so you can fit into the key ring! You can put it in either of the holes on the left side of the wrench in the picture thats right next to the bottle cap opener.
We just created a facebook and twitter page so I would love to keep in touch with our developmental phase and launch phase!

We're still looking for feedback!
I like it. I don't know how pinhead wrenches won't defeat it but I'd love to know how (through IM so that you don't give the thieves ideas). It is elegant, simple, and well though out- an engineers dream. It would be great if you could make seat post bolts in the same fashion. That way you could get away with having only one locking set. It would be great if it were cheaper than pitbulls. However, I like engineers and entrepreneurs so let me be first on your testing/ sales group.
Thanks TE! You pushed me half way over!

It looks like a great invention. I live in NYC ahd have Pinhead (yes, I know there's a wrench but it will deter the opportunistic amateur).
Will you also have something to protect the seat post/saddle?
It's great that your wrench will fit on a key ring (Pinhead's doesn't). Good luck with your project.
The wrench is small enough to fit into your keychain, so it's convenient for you to carry around. It also can pop bottles open!
