Errrr, sorry to be a doubter fellas but i've always used Graphite Powder/Lube in my bike locks/ignition as this contains no oils (WD40) to attract and hold any dirt.

Always worked for me for long periods...........

They wouldn't listen to me  :grumble  :lol :lol

OK, OK, everybody listen to Frosties!! And maybe give Noggy a tip o'the hat. My wee can arrived this morning and I now have a super smooth lock  :eek  I've even managed to get it to the steering lock position without too much swearing, some sort of fandango like moves are still required with the key to achieve this but it's nice to know it'll go. Couldn't get it to PE though, I'm not fussed in the slightest about that. I was so happy I even cleaned the bugger and tightened the chain  :lol


Thanks to all contributors, I think this needs to go down as the official Foc-U lock fixing solution!


Cheers,
Rob
