Fatbike
Opening a fatbike lock: battery, chain or steering seized
Fatbikes carry heavy locks and a battery that will not leave. Do not pry in the battery bay: that is how cradles die.
Send a photo. Then we know whether it is a ring lock, chain or battery retainer. Same price build as a normal bike.
A new lock is not a luxury. An unlocked fatbike on an Amsterdam rack is gone in ten minutes.
20 years in, no starter rate, no fuss. WhatsApp the pin.
Fatbikes are heavy and wanted. An open battery or a loose chain is a problem within minutes.
Do not lever the battery bay. Photo of the lock, then we bring the right tool.
Same €75 within 15 km. We are now open if you still need it tonight.
