I think the points been made now but to put my penny worth in.......

The only locks the STANDARD CB pick wont open are those that dont use the curtain to throw the bolt,
But it really is as simple as buying the stem that has the bolt thrower on.

As you will find if you read through the site, people dont like being told somthing cant be done, if it cant be done a solution is often worked out through a lot of time and thinking by many members, but more often than not these things can be done and are a regulary practiced by the locksmiths on the site.

On the same note people dont like newbe's slating experianced members, especially when there has obviously been no thought put in to the post.

Welcome to the site, have a good look round and digest everything you see, just hope you havent already alienated some of the most experianced people on site already.

im not convinced at present whether this is a genuine post its so anti the cb picks , this is the second one slateing the cb pick in as many weeks, both by newbies and both their 1st post, i suspect foul play and know of only 1 person who takes pleasure in running down cb tools.
if this is again a vain attempt to put these tools down , then it has again fell on deaf ears.
if it is who i suspect then i can only advise them to grow up and match the cb pick for quality .

if how ever it is a genuine post, which would surprise me due to the drivel and content, then i can only say to chazz practice read and learn before you make foolish posts, or take up plumbing.

I must admit it did smell a little of MF to me as well but same as you gave the benefit of doubt,

If its a petty and small minded thread then all you are achiveing is to waste peoples good intentions and time, you are only serving to do down your picks as at the same time loads of people come on the thread and say the CB pick is better everytime,

Its a swing and roundabout thing but unfortunatley if its not genuine all you are doing is falling off everytime and the day will come when there is no one to help you back on.

If its genuine, continue to post and try to learn as much as you can, keep practiceing with the cb and you will find great reasults are to be gained,

If its another bogus petty post, GROW UP (and improve your wire)

Chazz,
If this is a genuine post then you need to ask for advice rather than be so negative.

The Chris Belcher pick is a very good tool that, as Pinky said will open most B.S lever locks, even with the lowest lever. If you want to open every lock then buy the pin & cam kits or decoders & practice hard as there is no quick fix.

Expensive?... Yes
Time consuming?.... Yes
Worth it?.... You bet!
