I have a motorcycle lock which has a 10 pin tubular lock, I have the new Southord tubular picks - but have not seen one for the 10 pin version.
Does anyone know where they can be purchased from?
Cheers
Jon

I have never seen nor heard of a 10 pin ace pick. I don't think they exist, but I could be wrong. I'll see if I can find anything.

They do exist, & 11 & 12, I've seen them for sale for between €500 - €800, what I've not seen is the tublar locks they're designed to open lol.

I did find out more info about 10 pin tubular locks.
Heres a good picture on pin placement:
And heres the website I found that on http://netcity1.web.hinet.net/UserData/ ... 10_pin.htm
I am guessing if you do alittle searching you will find that they are used primarily in Europe.

Thats interesting about the A+B styles, thanks for that info..
Chubby, where abouts have you seen those picks - they sound quite expensive! - Do you think they would they work as well as the 7-8pin picks - or would they be even more tricky - becasue of the high amount of pins?
Cheers
Jon

right now I can only find bike locks that have a 10 pin system, and you would pay that much to steal bikes and/or piss off Master Lock.

There's a handful of things on that site for which I know "fair market value" offhand, and the prices there are all about four times average.
So if we price the pick at 1/4 of what they do, or like $750, then it looks about right for a tool that specialized.
Not that I'm going to buy one. If I find one for like $15 (that's one-five), maybe I will.

Yea anything over 50 bux is pushing it for me, but something like an Ace pick isn't really that worth it.
