Standard Specification for Condition 1 Bicycle Frames
ABSTRACT
This specification establishes the testing requirements for the structural performance of Condition 1 bicycle frames. The bicycle frames shall undergo horizontal and vertical loading fatigue tests, and impact strength test in accordance to a referenced ASTM test method. Frames that fail to meet the performance requirements shall be rejected.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification establishes testing requirements for the structural performance properties of Condition 1 bicycle frames.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

INTRODUCTION
This specification defines a set of requirements for Condition 1 bicycle frames. Condition 1 is a
vehicle usage classification defined in Classification F2043 indicating the type of riding and surface
condition intended by design. Included are specifications for establishing loads and other criteria to be
used with the matching test method.
