Accidentally locked myself out of a new bike lock trying to reset the code. Followed the first couple of your steps and was able to get the key partially in. Kept turning the tumbler until the key engaged. Thank you! I was about to give up!!!
I think u r the only one mentioned about the lock in ur last part of the video No any utube channels mentioned that lock Proud about ur hardworking and covering everything
After trying for what seemed like forever to open one of these locks, I cut it apart to discover that the the internals were frozen and the plastic rings were spinning free without actually changing anything.
What does it look like? Is it the one without plastic parts and with tiny metal digits? It has no false gates and picks like a normal lock, you simply tension it, find the digit that binds and spin it until it lets loose and falls into a set. You can open those without knowing the code as fast as if you do, not suspicious at all. These in the video are pretty adequate in comparison.
I trust a 4' length of 1/2" steel chain, a Master 6-pin lockout padlock, and most importantly, my brain to find a safe place to lock up! Also, my bike is a steel-framed jalopy with wires hanging out everywhere, and a battery box held on with tie-wraps. It says to would-be thieves, "Do you feel lucky?" 😂😂😂
@@vuaeco You're not wrong. That's why the most important security asset is my brain. I have little choice as I don't have a proper battery mounting system, but I still need to occasionally remove the battery for charging. Another thing is that my hot glue-festooned battery box is from a sit-down scooter, so a keen-eyed thief might assume I have 4 lead acid batteries and walk away. At least, this is the hope...
You know what would help? People not relying on a $20 lock to protect a $2000 bike in a dark alley, late at night. Did you even watch the video? Or are you just reacting to the title like a fool?
