southord tubular picks

[salzi684]

I noticed that southord put a new set of tubular picks on their web page. I was wondering if anyone had a set and what they thought about them. To me they look like the HPC models with different handels. Here is a link http://southord.com/catalog.asp?cat=loc ... owstart=40

Mine is in the mail currently. What I usually use for Tubular is a Petersen Pro-1 (Ha.... now I just know some of you have pick envy) But its just too big and unmanagable for some bike locks. So im trying my hand at the 8 pin Southord one. And to clear up some perrenial confusion here the 8 pin pick will pick the 7 pin locks, and all the 7 pin offsets.

Thanks for the response, when you get them could you please post a review.

And for the time being, SouthOrd is selling their older tubular picks on their outlet page, for 30 $ each. Not bad at all

Yeah, I ordered their old picks on monday. I got the set because I wasn't sure if the 8 would work on 7's and for an extra $20 I figured why not.

Does anyone know if that older southord 8-pin pick (TPXS-08) works on regular 7's too (and not just 7's with an offset)?

Would certainly be nice to get away with $30 and still being able to open all tubulars of regular sizes (well, sorta)
