Love this core. I've got the smaller EC75IB/50. Never mind dimple locks being rather uncommon, it's the only one I own so far with what feels like mushroom drivers. The feedback is so pleasant and unique I still haven't managed to get bored of picking it.

[@LockNoob]

Dimple can certainly be addictive picks! :-)

[@waddac2]

Great picking and LOVELY Titalium lock. Got to get one for my Titalium collection.

[@LockNoob]

It’s a good one for the collection for sure! :-)

[@AThreeDogNight]

Absolutely stunning lock & the picking Ash, have a great one my friend. 😎✌🔑🗝🔐🔏🔓☝👍🖐.

[@LockNoob]

Thank you friend :-)

[@anekroth]

I just acquired and picked my first dimple lock! It is an Abus 75/30 with an EC core. The lock is tiny and the core is scaled accordingly. Navigating that keyway was a narrow fit lol. It took me a few minutes to manage to get it open but I eventually got it. The feel of dimple picks is taking a little getting used to.

[@LockNoob]

They do. Good work though :-)

[@HobbyPicker]

That looks like a really nice lock! You made fast work of that considering the tight keyway you had to work with!

[@LockNoob]

Thanks Hobby Picker :-)

[@LockPickingPatrolman]

Very fast work 👍👍 it’s a beautiful lock and those cores can be tricky for sure!

[@LockNoob]

They can! Thanks for watching friend:-)

[@cherokee8647]

Nice job Lock Noob. Love those dimple locks. 👍👍👍👍🧡

[@LockNoob]

Me too :-)

[@dazevers]

A great padlock, very nicely picked. Have a great week.

[@LockNoob]

Thanks Daz, you too mate :-)

[@Halfzipp]

Very well done :) . Its funny how North Americans and Europeans pick locks differently(pins on top vs pins on bottom). To us, you guys pick them upside down, and Im sure you think the same of us.

[@LockNoob]

I pick most locks pins up, but dimple locks are far easier to pick pins down :-)

[@BD90..]

It is one of my favorite dimple keyways

[@LockNoob]

They are fun but can be really frustrating :-)

[@Gazz_R]

Fantastic picking as always Ash. I never realised the EC stood for "extra classe". Take care and have fun mate.

[@LockNoob]

Well, it has the same Extra Classe keyway and the Pins feel the same so it was more of an educated guess, so I could be wrong... but I don’t think so :-)

[@chriscapune7873]

Great picking!!! Very nice Abus Dimple lock!!! 🐈👍👍🐈

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-)

[@geoffowen7627]

I love abus dimple padlocks, mul-t-locks give me more trouble though. Gotta get myself one of these.

[@LockNoob]

That are a fun challenge:-)

[@DarkArtsLockPicking]

Nicely done ash my friend. What a beautiful lock 👍🤘🖖🍻

[@LockNoob]

It is :-) have a great weekend DALP :-)

[@jesseparent7558]

great video! and crazy lock design i like it. keep it up

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-)

[@gilessparkes2699]

Great looking lock, great picking, great vid

[@LockNoob]

Thanks :-)

[@Kraken1000]

It's a lock that looks as if it's actually trying to do its job. Nice pick.

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-) it’s a serious beast :-)

[@thumperlockpicking9269]

What a beautiful lock Ash,Great job picking this, and gutting it to. Thank you for sharing it. Wishing ì can grasp picking this kind of lock. CHEERS Mate P.S. Could you please explain more on witch way you are picking the pins, are they all on the bottom, twisting your pick downwards, are you picking any pins on the top,when it comes to this lock ? Thank you

[@LockNoob]

The way I have the padlock orientated means all the pins are on the bottom and I am twisting the flag down to set the pins. Very few dimple locks have pins on the top and bottom, which is good, but it’s always worth taking a look into the keyway/ looking at the key to see what might be in store :-)

[@thumperlockpicking9269]

@@LockNoob that help me out A LOT. Thank you Ash

[@Leonslockpad]

I'm very nice lock Ash my friend well done👍👊😎🇬🇧😊

[@LockNoob]

Thanks Leon :-)

[@SC-ct5on]

Great pick. Just a quick question I have the same lock and picks but I can’t get the picks to slide. Have you modified them in anyway .. thanks

[@LockNoob]

No mods made

[@KeylessEntry]

A great looking lock👌 Just seen one on eBay as they are impossible to find here in Australia🇦🇺 The only thing I'm worried is even though it has a concealed shackle it looks like it could be shimmed? Have a great day my friend👍😀✌️

[@LockNoob]

You too!

[@martin64ist]

Sweet as great pick love abus great fun locks

[@LockNoob]

Thanks :-)

[@ratatosk2515]

I`ve been struggeling with a Abus ec75/60 since summer (for real!) I usely like dimple locks, but this one with the counter-clockwise rotation somehow eludes me. (As BosniaBill says: Sometimes the stars aligne when a lock is made)

[@LockNoob]

Having to pick it in the same direction as tensioning makes it harder :-)

[@TallanPick]

Great picking my friend, it has a nasty keyway, the pins and you have to picking in the same direction of the tensioning, makes that lock hard, nice done! Thanks for showing ;o))

[@LockNoob]

I think it’s safe to say you have had a huge influence on my dimple picking skills! :-) thanks Tallan :-)

[@TallanPick]

@@LockNoob Has been an honor to share lock picking experiences and knwoledge with you my friend ;o)))

[@LockNoob]

Well, I certainly appreciate it :-)

[@maureenswallow3054]

A very nice lock, and a competent pick. is this lock readily available in this country??as i am playing with dimples at the momentit most certainly looked a challange,well done,billbo.

[@LockNoob]

The UK? Sure plenty around just more rare than on the continent :-)

[@lockmania-locks]

Cool lock and nice picking My Friend

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-)

[@tonyworrall6270]

Great picking mate

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-)

[@novardifunkegenaamdkaiser3491]

Sir, as an cyclist, what lock or brandline would be best to buy?! Your video's give me very little confidence into trusting locks or even puppolar brands...

[@MyTube4Utoo]

Good job!

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@ulysg]

Hey, So I live in Europe and I'm looking for slim lock picks. As you seem of great advice, I just wanted to ask you wich brand should I consider Everybody recommand Peterson Euro line, but they don't seem that slim to me. Maybe SouthOrd or Multipick are more adequate Thank's in advance

[@escutus]

I haven't heard anything bad about multipick. They might be a bit pricy, but totally worth to have.

[@LockNoob]

Southord C-series, Sparrows and Multipick are all fine places to start looking :-)

[@ulysg]

@@LockNoob Thank's a lot !

[@georginaford7052]

I really must remember to get myself a decent set of dimple picks. I know that Multipick are among the best picks on the market, the prices are a bit scary, though I reckon you get excellent value for money. Now I really must go and pester my bank manager.....:-)

[@MrLone69wolf]

Have a look at the sparrows black flag dimple picks, excellent quality picks and they don't cost an awful lot either. Happy picking.

[@LockNoob]

I use the Honest Dong Shi set - it takes a while to finish and round off with a file though :-)

[@seriousthree6071]

OK, I have real issues with dimples, arthritis and fibromyalgia mean limited or no feedback. At least trying to grip normal lock picks isn't as bad now I have some 3D printed sides on them. Still damn poor at picking locks :( That was really nicely done.

[@LockNoob]

Thank you :-)

[@crowley357]

That one is a deterrent for almost any burglar... Easier to open a hole in the wall

[@LockNoob]

I agree! :-)

[@bird718]

abus with a name like 96CSTI/50 that must be one of the tougher ones

[@LockNoob]

Nah, the tough one is the 96CSTI/50XLRXS Plus :-)

[@jobustify]

Have you considered becoming a hand model?

[@roysammons2445]

How do you know he isn't already a hand model 🤣

[@LockNoob]

Why, when my feet are so much more alluring? :-)

[@roysammons2445]

What a lovely looking lock... and the security ain't that bad either. Fantastic picking as usual with what looks like a lot of heavy tension. Curiosity is tempting me to ask how many time did you manage to pick it open before this video?

[@LockNoob]

I can’t remember, but I usually film my second or third open. That can be after an hour of practice though... depends on the lock! :-)

[@lowellforbes3208]

Nice picking way above my belt 😃

[@LockNoob]

You. Ever know unless you try :-)

[@lowellforbes3208]

Lock Noob I’m sure it would help to have dimple picks too lol. Someday

[@parttimevandalz7558]

FIRST VIEW...WOOP! KEEP IT UP MAN, ENJOYED YOUR CONTENT. LOOK OUT FOR MONKEYMAFIA.UK LOCKSPORT COMING SOON.

[@LockNoob]

Will do :-)

[@MONTY-YTNOM]

I do wonder with these locks, They obviously spend a lot trying to make it 'pick' resistant. But how about smacking with a big hammer. Most garage rats don't know how to pick.

[@namrednop]

Absolutely my thoughts as well. Me, being a regular guy (should the need occur) I'm not going to take the time to "PICK" a lock like this (or any other one for that matter, unless it was a Master Lock, lol), I'm going to attack it with my angle grinder or my sawzall. So, how well would this padlock hold up to one of these attacks? I can already answer that question for you, lol.

[@LockNoob]

This is where the public are woefully unaware of what Lock suits what purpose: this isn’t a high security lock, but it is good for a lower security application. Criminals don’t pick locks and there are locks out there that offer much higher levels of physical security... they just cost a whole lot more. :-)

[@adamsmith6594]

piece of crap. Its a brilliant lock at locking but it seizes and nothing will shift it. I coild have used WD40 but that was in the f'ing locked shed. Dire
