Nope, you'll have to uy a new padlock.
-
If it's a padlock it should be easy enough to pick. Search the web for how to sites. Practice on another lock firth though.

basically, if its a traditional key shaped key. that looks something like this:
It shall be fairly easy to pick. You may have to buy a lockpick set if its an okish lock though. Will only cost about £7
If its a modern, lasercut style key that most modern bike/motorbike locks have. It is probably not something you can pick open.
Have you tried removing your handlebars/stem? Or is it locket around the frame too?

The key looks pretty traditional. I can't currently remember the name of whoever made the lock (the identifying fabric that used to cover the metal chain has mostly gone), but I was told a while ago that they had stopped making them, which sorta sounds like it's prob not some laser cut jobby.
Removing handlebars won't help as it's neatly locked around the cross bar - a bit like the one here but nicer

clearly I'll get all Dickensian and pick the lock.
-
its a new style key that is hard to pick with out propper tools, and can't be removed from the bars with out cutting... so who wants to cut a lock off tomorrow, you bring angel grinder, i bring beer.
-
THE WORLD WILL END. Please do not allow cirsh carsh to use an angle grinder.
I have used bigger tools then you have ever seen
-
We've got an angle grinder at home... May be able to work something out...
edit: I'll come over tomorra, I'm off so no big deal...nice one, ill be around most of the day
-
You are the biggest tool that I have ever seen.
Rep added to.

Locked my lock to my handlebars and then lost the (only) key
Posted by
Hallo,
This situation must've come up before. It is essentially a case of a lost key. I have a tendancy to wrap my big ol' motorbike-style lock around my handlebars so I don't have to wind it round my waist.
Only, the other day - after four years - I lost the only key.
What I'm really after is another key. Does anyone know if locksmiths can make an impression of the key hole size and make me a new one??
