That type of lock was often found as factory installed on Bikes made in Sweden. The lock was welded directly to the bike frame and did not have the bracket as this stand alone lock has.

Well, hardly anyone steals bikes anymore. Businesses where people commute by bike, often have secured areas to park them. And bikes themselves have divided much further into bikes that are so cheap they're not worth stealing, and bikes that are so expensive that you know you can't just lock them to some railings on a quiet street.

@@ashscott6068 Well, I don't agree that there are just these two categories. There's also a lot in between. For example bikes that cost somewhere between $300-1000. If you secure them with one or two high quality U-locks or chain locks, in a public area, they can be "stored" on the streets as well. Furthermore it depends on where you live, in highly populated areas the risk of bike theft is a lot greater than in small cities / rural areas.

Happy retirement Bill! Your channel was my "gateway drug" into security and lockpicking KZbin, hats off for the knowledge you put out there. I'd bet anyone who lived in Sweden in the eighties or nineties would recognize that style of lock instantly, they were on lots of bikes back then. The ASSA door locks were (are?) also extremely popular. You might already know, but the "MCB" on the key stands for Monark Crescent-Bolagen ("bolagen" means companies in Swedish), so it's off a Monark or Crescent, the dominating bicycle brands in Sweden in the eighties. (They also made a lot of other stuff, motorbikes, mopeds etc.)

Hah! This video hits on _two_ locks I grew up with! The bike lock model came fix-mounted on my first three (adult) bikes (Monark and Crescent), and the door lock is what we have on my parent's summer-house. Oh my word, the nostalgia feelings. That bike lock, that is where I learned about key serials. I accidentally _broke_ the key one day while the bike was locked, and I called up a locksmith to see if they could repair the key. "...yes, it is an ASSA bike key." "Oh! Well don't bother with trying to fix the key then. It is an original, and you have the serial on it?" "Yes?" "Okay, tell me that serial, and you can come by tomorrow and pick up a freshly cut key" "What?" "Yes, I just check out the pattern and cut from that" Unfortunately, the bike was stolen by the time I got back to it, but at least I learned about key serials. :)

It's been a while since a saw these locks but back in the day it was very common. It's an easy pick, i picked a lot of them and changed the locking bolt to a new one. You made me smile by thinking you could easily bend it open or only remove the pin or to use light turning tension when picking the lock. Not all ASSA are scary like the old ASSA 500-series that was pretty easy to pick with the "timeglass"over tumblers, those was as fast to pick as to open with a key.

She put up a real fight! I was just wandering if you could possibly do a video on budget friendly table top vises. I can’t find a reliable vise unless I spend upwards of $60-$80. Thank you for your consideration!

So a 1980s lock that puts to shame many of the modern locks today, due to some very clever but simple thinking.

Often when you bought a bike from a Swedish manufacturer in the early eighties the lock was actually welded on to the frame before painting.

Really appreciate your willingness to "ruin a video" by making an attempt that may end up in a fail. Makes the video better if you ask me! Also noticed a theme here... you can count on a fail if you don't have a long enough tool! ... referring to the pick, tensioner, and punch of course 😁

Don't worry about any people, I saw a dude with a hammer "working" on a bike lock in the middle of the city [Amsterdam], people running left and right, just a normal shiny summer day, nobody cared. This changed my mind forever.

These were basically on all bikes in Sweden in the 80s and 90s. Standard on any new bike from proper brand.

So windshield wiper insert is a real thing you have for sale over in the US? That's really weird. We just have ready-made windshield wipers of different lengths to buy.

Not for sale, just visit your local car mechanic workshop. They will throw out hundreds of those every month. They are used to give cheap wiper blades some stiffness so they don’t flop about in the windshield wiper heads. Usually pre 2000 built vehicles

Sparrows, Southord, Petersen, Multipick and many other professional locksmith tool suppliers now include pre-graded and prepared wiper insert wrenches in thier kits (which are usually hardened stainless steel) Some even supply unworked but pre-cut lengths of spring steel for you to make your own. It's a pity they don't supply blank pick steel lengths too. Ah well.

I had at least two bikes with this kind of lock and where I lost the key. Powertools werent all that common in the 80's so it was an absolute ass to remove with a hacksaw. That shackle is hard as F, at least for an adolecent. And you have to cut both ends of the shackle.

So what you do is you drive down the street in a van, and if you spot a bike you fancy, you pick it up and throw it in the back and take care of the lock back in the shop.
