EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 11243 testing. ISO 11243 specifies safety and performance requirements for the design and testing of luggage carriers intended to be mounted on and next to bicycle wheels (with or without tools) and sets guidelines for instructions on the use and maintenance of such luggage carriers.
This International Standard has been developed in response to worldwide demand and the aim is to ensure that the luggage carrier manufactured in accordance with it is as safe as practically possible. The tests are designed from the ground up to ensure the robustness and durability of the luggage carrier, demanding high quality and consideration of safety aspects from the design stage.
In general, for static and fatigue tests, any test should be performed on a new test specimen, but if only one test specimen is available, all tests are permitted on the same specimen in the following test order.
During normal driving or normal use and normal maintenance, the driver's or the transported person's hands, legs, etc. Spring ends should be rounded or equipped with protective caps.

The rear direction of any rear luggage carrier not equipped with an integrated taillight and reflector may be equipped with a bracket or brackets as an integral part or as a separate accessory (or accessories) to allow the attachment of a taillight and reflector.
