Hi!
I started reading a bit about the CEN standards on city bikes and I was reading the fatigue resistance requirements.
I readed on the EN 14764 for City and Trekking bicycles that a bike is tested so it wont have any fatigue damage after 100000 load cycles.
Are these 100000 load cycles something like the candence? I have a bike that I think that I am sure that I did over 1200km with and its aluminium too (not fatigue damage-proof material like carbon fiber as I read).
Do you think that I should stop using it? Is there a way to check for fatigue damage at this point?
Thanks /img/vbsmilies/smilies/smile.gif
