so a friend of mine locked his roof rack to a post outside his apt with a u-lock, then he finished his phd and moved to nebraska
now its sitting outside his old apt locked to the post with a kryptonite knock off brand u-lock

the key to this lock is packed up in his shit at his parents house 3 hours away from me

the rack includes some parts that i want, so i told him i would try to get it off and junk whats leftover for him

ideas?
