I bet that is a "parking lock" similar to what you see on a lot of euro and asian bikes except mounted on the rear of the frame in under the seat stay. They are there just to keep someone from riding away, but do nothing to prevent it being carried off. This might be a little better theft deterant on a 50-60 lb bike than something lighter. I know I would think twice about trying to run off with that mch weight.
that is a BEAUTY.
