Please help @CycleInspect and @UNSWScience better understand the prevalence and broader economic impacts of structural issues in carbon fibre bicycles by completing this survey https://t.co/WVOpOfw6Pr @CyclingScience1 #cycling
Our research partnership with @UNSW will provide crucial insights into the condition of #carbonfibre#bicycles in real-world scenarios.

Skip to 35:55 for a discussion about Cycle Inspect and what we are doing.
One point of clarification: theoretical training is estimated to be 8 hours, however practical training is a separate commitment.
Thanks to @EscapeCycling for the yarn

Announcing our research partnership with @UNSWScience@UNSW to explore the prevalence of visible and hidden damage within bikes currently in use by the general public.

Here we see the outcome of a ‘three point bending’ test of CFRC tubes. First picture shows minimal observable damage (even at almost 2300 N of pressure).
The second picture shows the true damage, magnified using the @AliconaImaging Infinite Focus G5 3D measurement system
Cycle Inspect and @UNSW are on a path to determining the extent to carbon fibre damage to bikes currently in use by the general public.
RT to updated with findings.
