Abstract
The disclosure discloses a bike lock used to lock the bike to prevent bike theft. A first shaft and a second shaft of the bike lock are connected to the handlebar and the front wheel of the bike, respectively. When the bike lock is in a locking mode, the first shaft is not linked to move with the second shaft, preventing the user from controlling the front wheel by the handle effectively. When the bike lock is in an unlocking mode, the first shaft is linked to move with the second shaft. The first shaft can be linked to move with the second shaft by two different linkage mechanisms. One is to link the first shaft with the second shaft with a pin; the other is to firmly engage an engaging structure of one of the shafts to another.
