Cut off damaged bicycle lock

colm_c

Some little scrote has attempted to steal myself and the mrs bicycle's, while they didn't manage to get them, they left some scratches on the frames and on the u locks, they also seem to have damaged the lock barrel as the key no longer fits.

I need to get the lock cut at this point, so I'm looking for someone in south Dublin who would have the tools to help remove the lock.

go and ask in the car forum. A few of the lads there have bolt cutters. Maybe they might help you out?

If there U locks, borrow a car jack stick it in the lock and open the jack. It'll pop open fairly handy.

I'll try this when I get home, although the lock is in an awkward enough place.

How much or what brand is the lock. You can hacksaw the cheaper ones easily enough. I did have a decent kryptonite one that took a good 5mins with an angle grinder though.

Mini angle grinders have been going cheap enough in the likes of lidl & tesco over the past good few years, someone you know might have one.

If you ask in the nearest garda station, they will generally cut the lock for you.
