This is the first hit on google when looking for replacement abus bike lock keys...
I broke my key trying to use it as a tyre lever when I got a puncture on my way to glastonbury. It just snapped.
For anyone else asking this question, I found this:

...Shimano cassette lockring tool, and cable housing cutter?
Speaking of which, is there a good guide to cutting cable housing? In the past I used regular pliers with integrated wire cutters, but it tended to mangle the ends.
I'm south (Balham), but could travel to any polo or location on evenings and weekends.
It's not urgent, I haven't ordered the replacement parts yet...
Cheers!

Cheers guys, didn't think about just getting a new link like that.
I thought it looked difficult to get the re-assembly wrong - I just wanted to check I wasn't making some stupid mistake like putting it in upside down or back to front or something like that.
It's deffo the chain, I can see it jump and make the noise

So I had this weird click coming from the drive train, and I could feel it through the pedals. I'm running 48/16 so it was strange that the click came every other down stroke on the drive side. (i.e. every two revolutions of the cranks)
Quickly narrowed it down to the chain. It's got one of these quick release links in it:
http://www.freemanscycles.co.uk/images/Chains/kmc_510hx.jpgAnd it's like that link is slightly longer than all the others. When the chain is under tension and that link is coming off the sprocket, it jumps up a little bit, making the click.
Thing is, this has only started happening since I took the chain apart and cleaned it. Have I put the chain back together incorrectly?
I'm guessing I'll just need to get a new chain.
Cheers

I thought 5x meant it was sold in the second half of 200x? Although, thinking about it... that wouldn't really make sense
