I've just put my bike away and the 'OXFORD HEAVY DUTY' shackle lock has failed so I can't open it and my bike is now firmly secured to a ground anchor. I'm going to write to Oxford AGAIN and tell them what a load of sh*te they are!!

I'm gonna cut it off with a grinder jp then post the pics to them. Everything i've bought from them including boots (twice), intercom and lock have all knacked within 18 months. It's absolutely disgusting that a company selling chat from China can go under the guise of 'British' with union jacks all over their crap stuff!!
Over half of 'supposed' designer gear - is manufactured in China now.
Can't you remember? We sold off the British manufacturing industry!
We manufacture nothing now but at least the financial sector will keep us afloat

I stopped buying Oxford gear when the first thing I bought (Oxford Bone Dry) boots fell to bits within 3 months yamahama. Trouble is I bought several other items at the same time and every one of them has let me down!
On the plus side I managed to get the shackle off tonight with a few smacks with a big hammer. Just as well I wasn't a thief cos it was mighty easy!!

Wilson my lock was a bit iffy a couple of times before it gave up the ghost. The good news is it only takes 15 seconds with a club hammer to break the lock off so don't worry too much when it fails!!
A mate recommended almax chains, got a couple of them now, they seem pretty good, although you need a separate lock. Their videos are quite impressive...
