    I thought that is what it would look like. A very popular item in the 1800's in the US, it is a salesman's lock for his sample goods which were typically rolled up an then this hasp placed around it and locked. Someone may have used one to lock up a bicycle, but that isn't what it was designed for because bicycles weren't invented until this lock and hasp had been in use for many years. I think they pretty much stopped being used or made with the invention of the automobile with a locking trunk
