It's a fail. Maybe it's impossible to remove the rear wheel, but a less bright thief will go for it.
If the theft fails, they'd vandalise the bike in anger.
I've seen many bikes locked with this method vandalised in Amsterdam and Berlin.
Thickos think at first that it will be an easy target, undo the rear wheel and then get agitated.
