Product Information

Full details

The Oxford HD Chain Lock in Black is designed for owners of small to medium motorcycles seeking a robust mid-range security solution. Its key benefit is the combination of hardened Cro-Mo steel chain and a versatile padlock, offering significant resistance against theft. A potential caveat is its weight, classifying it in the 'middleweight (portable, up to 10kg)' category, which might be a consideration for frequent transport.

FAQs

What is the weight of the Oxford HD Chain Lock?

The lock is classified as 'middleweight' and can weigh up to 10kg, depending on the chosen length.

Can I use the padlock as a disc lock?

Yes, the hardened steel shackle of the padlock is designed to be used independently as a disc lock on suitable motorcycle brake discs.

What does 'Sold Secure Motor Scooter SILVER' approval mean?

This approval indicates that the lock has been tested by Sold Secure and meets a specific standard of security suitable for motor scooters, providing a verified level of protection.

How do I get a replacement key?

Oxford offers a key replacement service. You will typically need to provide your key number, which is often found on a tag that comes with the lock.

Is the cloth sleeve removable for cleaning?

The cloth sleeve is designed to protect your paintwork and is generally fixed to the chain. It can be wiped down with a damp cloth.

What lengths are available for this chain lock?

The Oxford HD Chain Lock is available in 1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, and 3.0m lengths.

How should I maintain the padlock?

Keep the padlock clean and dry. Periodically lubricate the key mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant, especially after exposure to weather.

Troubleshooting

Padlock is difficult to lock or unlock.

Ensure the chain links are properly aligned. Clean the keyhole and mechanism, then apply a small amount of graphite lubricant. Avoid forcing the key.

Chain links appear to be rusting.

Wipe the chain dry and check the zinc coating. Minor surface rust can often be cleaned off. Ensure the cloth sleeve is not trapping moisture.

Key will not turn in the padlock.

Verify you are using the correct key. Ensure the shackle is fully retracted and no internal debris is obstructing the lock cylinder.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Considered 'middleweight' with a weight up to 10kg, which may be heavy for some users to transport daily.
  • As a chain lock, it requires a secure anchor point for maximum effectiveness.
  • Padlock mechanism might be stiff in very cold or wet conditions.
  • Requires careful handling to avoid scratching the motorcycle frame with the chain links.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select a suitable anchor point that cannot be easily cut or dismantled.
  2. Thread the chain through the motorcycle frame (e.g., rear wheel or swingarm) and the anchor point.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for small to medium motorcycles.
  • The padlock can be used as a disc lock on compatible brake discs.

Care:

  • Keep the padlock mechanism clean and dry when not in use. Periodically apply a graphite-based lubricant to ensure smooth operation, especially after exposure to adverse weather.
  • Wipe the chain and sleeve with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Store the lock in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion.
