Abstract: A lock for locking a bike is provided. To lock the bike, a user inserts a rope head into a lock through a lock hole. The rope head drives a slider in the lock, and the slider drives a pin, causing an upper-rotation shaft of the lock become not linked to move with a lower-rotation shaft of the lock. Since the upper-rotation shaft and the lower-rotation shaft of the lock are respectively connected to a handlebar and a front wheel of the bike, the user is unable to control the front wheel through the handlebar. The rope head may also be connected to a rope, and when locking the lock, the user pulls the rope out from the lock, wraps the rope around a fixed object, and then inserts the rope head into the lock through the lock hole.
