Bicycle frame maintenance details


Carbon fiber is an incredible material, it completely changed the design and performance of the bicycle frame. It is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, can be molded into various desired shapes and is very strong in use. The carbon fiber frame and related parts are generally brittle and unreliable is not true, it is only alarmist. It is strong enough, can be used in the F1 and aerospace industry, naturally used in the field of bicycle is no doubt.
If it is produced by a trusted manufacturer and used correctly, the carbon frame has no reason not to give you enough miles to ride, and now many manufacturers offer a lifetime warranty for the frame. No matter what material you choose the frame, carbon frame Ye Hao, steel frame Ye Hao, aluminum alloy Ye Hao, titanium alloy Ye Hao, quality is the key, good quality is always more durable. Ride a carbon car, you do not have to deliberately change the way some of the ride, but you can pay attention to some carbon fiber car daily maintenance and use of the details.
Buy a torque wrench
Despite the incredible performance in the design direction, extrusion can easily damage the carbon fiber, such as excessive tightening of the bolts and fixtures, handlebar and seat parts are caused by carbon fiber frame damage the most common cause. All parts of the carbon fiber truck are marked with a recommended torque value in millimeters, which can be found on the relevant parts, on the instructions or on the manufacturer's website. If you have a carbon fiber car, a torque wrench is necessary, it can ensure that you will not use more than the recommended value of the torque to fasten the parts. If you had a metal frame bike before, you might be surprised that the force required to assemble and adjust the carbon fiber vehicle was so small.
Use carbon assembly cream
Carbon frame and parts required relatively small torque value also has a drawback is easy to slip off. This will especially affect the seat bar. Do not try to use an extra, greater force to tighten the seat bar, you should use a carbon assembly cream. This is a gel containing fine particles, similar to a layer of film, between the contact surface to increase the friction to prevent slippage. Assembly creams and torque wrenches are essential for carbon fiber owners.
Be careful to operate
Accident, the carbon damage caused by the impact is usually difficult to predict and avoid in advance, but some will damage the carbon fiber collision events can be easily avoided. A common situation is that the handlebar turns over and hits the upper tube of the frame, which often occurs when the bicycle is inadvertently lifted. So be careful not to let this happen when taking your bike. Also try to avoid the bike stacked on other bicycles, and do not use the seat parts leaning on the pole or column, so the car will be easy to slip so that the collision on the frame. It would be safer to keep the car on a plane such as a wall. Of course, you do not need to over-tighten your car wrapped with cotton. You just need to be careful, do a reasonable precaution to avoid unnecessary collision on the line.
Keep it clean
Regular cleaning can give you a chance to look at the bike carefully to see if there are obvious signs of damage. No matter what the material frame, it should be your routine in the ride. Of course, rugged cleaning is also needed to avoid, which will destroy the epoxy resin wrapped around the carbon fiber. If you have any questions about how to scientifically clean your car, you can consult the manufacturer for advice. Any bicycle-specific oil or cleaning products and old-fashioned mild soapy water should be used appropriately and reasonably.
