Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to

the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 149, Cycles, Subcommittee SC 1, Cycles

and major sub-assemblies, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

Technical Committee CEN/TC 333, Cycles, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation

between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 4210-3:2014), which has been technically

revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— improvement of 4.2.1;
— improvement of 4.3;
— improvement of A.2;
— addition of Annex C.
A list of all parts in the ISO 4210 series can be found on the ISO website.

Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction

This document was developed in response to a demand throughout the world. The aim is to ensure that

bicycles manufactured in conformity with this document will be as safe as is practically possible. The

tests are designed to ensure the strength and durability of individual parts as well as of the bicycle as

a whole, demanding high quality throughout and consideration of safety aspects from the design stage

onwards.

The scope is limited to safety considerations and has specifically avoided standardization of

components.
If the bicycle should be used on public roads, national regulations apply.
