Bicycle stands rear axle manual#
The MY20 SuperSix EVO Owners Manual states, “If you ride a trainer a lot, consider using an old bike: Corrosion from sweat will take its toll. While some other brands, like Cannondale, lightly encourage you to whack an old bike into your trainer in their warranty documentation, this suggestion is more focused on wear parts and corrosion than broken carbon. We also recommend a periodic safety inspection in case of frequent or hard trainer use." “Still, it is important to follow the trainer manufacturer’s instructions and make sure everything is set up properly. “It’s almost like a simulation of being stuck indoors for the next ten years,” she says. Henningsen says Specialized's new testing protocol takes into account the twisting forces between the rear axle and BB and is designed to put its frames through an entire life cycle of heavy trainer use. While we cannot predict every single trainer use and/or setup, we believe our test is rigorous enough to be able to recommend our MY20 and later road frames for common trainer use,” says Kelly Henningsen, Specialized's PR and Operations Manager for Road. “In response to the increasing popularity of trainers, we have developed a very rigorous proprietary test which all MY20 and later road frames have to pass in order to be released to the market. The California brand has changed its tune when it comes to trainers, thanks to a new testing protocol. Specialized was another brand that famously said its carbon bikes were not designed or tested for use with a trainer. We asked if the new testing resulted in any changes to the frames, and Worth did not elaborate.
