FAQs

What does the Sold Secure Silver rating mean?

It means the lock has been independently tested and proven to offer a high level of resistance against common theft tools, meeting specific security standards.

Can I get a replacement key if I lose all three?

Yes, Oxford provides an access service for replacement keys. Keep your key code card in a safe place, as you will need it for this service.

Will this fit on a thicker bike frame?

The mounting bracket is designed to be adjustable, but please ensure your frame diameter is compatible with the provided hardware during installation.

How often should I clean the lock?

Wipe the shackle with a clean cloth occasionally to remove road grime, and keep the key barrel clean using the built-in shield.

Can I lock my bike to any post?

The 260mm size is designed for standard poles, racks, and fences. Always choose a fixed, immovable object to lock your bicycle.

Troubleshooting

Key is difficult to insert or turn

Apply a small amount of dry PTFE lubricant to the key and insert/remove it several times to clear debris.

Locking mechanism feels stiff

Ensure the shackle is aligned correctly with the base. Do not force the key; inspect the shackle ends for any grit.

Mounting bracket is loose or rattling

Tighten the bracket screws and ensure the rubber shims provided with the mount are placed correctly between the clamp and the frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your lock, first identify a suitable location on your bike frame for the mounting bracket. Use the provided hardware to secure it, ensuring the lock sits snugly without vibrating. For optimal security, always loop the shackle through the frame's main triangle and, if possible, one of the wheels before locking to a fixed object. To maintain the lock, apply a dry lubricant to the internal key mechanism every few months, especially if you live in a coastal or humid environment. Keep the weatherproof barrel cover closed whenever the lock is not in use to maximize the longevity of the tumblers.
