A bicycle lock for blocking a rotation of the crankshaft (5) of a bicycle
is provided at the bottom in a saddle tube (6) of the bicycle close to
the crankshaft. The bicycle lock comprises a lock housing (1)
accommodating a locking pin (2) and a locking mechanism. The locking
mechanism is adapted to fix the locking pin in two positions, wherein it
releases or blocks the crankshaft. The bicycle lock is provided with
coupling means (12) which are adapted to interact with counter-coupling
means being part of the saddle tube in order to have a detachable
coupling between the lock housing and the saddle tube. The lock housing
(1) is coupled to the saddle tube (6) by a rotating coupling (12). The
locking pin in the lower position thereof blocks the rotation of the
coupling between the block housing and the saddle tube.
