Disc Lock Stuck

[mary.walsh]

So I drove off today with my disc lock still on the back of the bike.
The lock is now stuck on and won't come off. I can turn the key in the lock and I can see it move so it feels like its unlocking but it doesn't spring out so I can't get it off.

I've put a load of WD40 on it but it still wont pop out.
Its an oxford titan disc lock.

Anyone know what I could do myself bar bringing it to the mechanic to get it angle grinded off?

1. Try to wedge it a mini wrecking bar or screwdriver between the shackle and the body of the lock.
1.5 Ram a screwdriver up it.
2. Hit it with a rubber mallet.
3. Hit it even harder with the mallet.
4. If its still not off by now buy a cheapo grinder from Argos.
5. Don't buy anything made buy Oxford ever again and curse the brand at any given opportunity.

Would be cheaper to just buy a replacement disc.

Alternately, as it's Oxford, just kick it a couple of times.....

Are you at home or out and about? I know someone who called the AA with the same problem and they cut it off no probs.

Assuming you're not a taxi driving narcissist.
Try and recreate the mishap so you can work out which way you've bent the pin, then take an appropriately sized lump of wood and a hammer and knock the lock in the opposite direction.
Shouldn't take much.

Actually just got it off. Gave it one more go before bed. Thanks all!
