pezhore lemmy.ml2Hide 2 repliesI'm just getting into tubular lock picking, and I cannot seem to get the Sparrow Mantis wrench to fit on my first tubular lock. I may grab some smaller bike locks this weekend/go thrift shopping to see what I can find.2
lfisk replyinfosec.exchange@pezhore @ilovecheese Might want to post some images, showing the problem and/or the Name+Model for the lock in question. There are quite a few different size tubular locks and not all of them can be tensioned in the same way. If you know the name/model... you could also try searching youtube with it and see if anyone else has opened it and what they used😉3
ilovecheese replymander.xyzI've only picked a few tubulars, most can be tensioned with almost anything as long as you can get it into the notch of the centre. There's a couple of common diameters used so a couple of tensioners are handy. Time to dig out my tubular locks again!1
