The tests are designed to ensure the strength and durability of the individual parts and the bike as a whole, demanding that high quality and safety considerations be taken into account throughout from the design stage.
Perform a drive system static load test on an assembly consisting of the chassis, pedals, transmission system, rear wheel assembly, and shift mechanism if applicable. To prevent the wheel from turning, support the frame so that the midplane is vertical and the rear wheel is held on the rim.
If the system is tilted or the drive gears are tightened, the crank rotates to rotate to a position 30° below horizontal under load, remove the test force, move the crank to a horizontal position or to an appropriate above-horizontal position. account for flow or movement and repeat the test.
Two types of fatigue tests are specified for mountain bikes: the first test was conducted with the cranks positioned at 45° to the horizontal to simulate the forces from pedaling, and the second test with the cranks positioned at 30° to the horizontal; It was found to simulate the forces caused by the driver standing on the pedals while going downhill. The two tests should be performed on separate setups.
