How does a bicycle testing machine work and what is its testing principle?
The testing method for bicycles is the detection principle of the bicycle testing machine: Excellent bicycles are not only the preferred choice of major international teams, but also the ultimate goal that amateur cyclists are constantly striving for. Despite their seemingly simple structure, bicycles...
The individual and integrated performance of various components such as the frame, wheelset, and kit all affect the final performance of the entire bicycle. Therefore, determining the quality of a bicycle has become a problem that we urgently need to solve.
To give a simple example, although the carbon frame offers greater lightweight advantages compared to traditional heavy materials such as aluminum or steel used in bicycles, it enables riders to ride with less effort.
However, picking out an outstanding product from among the numerous carbon frames that differ in brand and model is no easy task. After all, the strength, weight, and even the deformation caused by different parts under stress of each carbon frame will all affect the overall performance of the entire vehicle.
So for ordinary people, these are completely invisible and intangible. They can only be judged as good or bad through their subjective feelings.
1. Bicycle Braking Test
Fix the wheel set on the brake test bench, and use the standard default brake pads (for carbon fiber wheels, use the factory-installed brake pads). Accelerate the load wheel to a speed of 50 km/h, and under the conditions of dry, wet, and with the brake pad temperature raised to 60 degrees Celsius respectively,
The braking force is measured using stress patches.
II. Bicycle Fork Impact Test
Driving safety, steering accuracy and driving comfort are not only dependent on the frame, but also have a significant relationship with the performance of the front fork. The stronger the lateral stiffness of the front fork, the easier it is to turn through the wheels. The greater the deformation of the front fork in the vertical direction,
Then the impact on the hand will be smaller. The front fork test bench can measure the deflection movement of the front fork in the two force directions.
