Composite frame, fork, and

Component inspection
Cracks:

Inspect for cracks, broken, or splintered areas. Any

crack is serious. Do not ride any bicycle or component

that has a crack of any size.

delamination:

Delamination is serious damage. Composites are

made from layers of fabric. Delamination means that

the layers of fabric are no longer bonded together.

Do not ride any bicycle or component that has any

delamination. These are some delamination clues:

• A cloudy or white area. This kind of area looks

different from the ordinary undamaged areas.

Undamaged areas will look glassy, shiny, or “deep,”

as if one was looking into a clear liquid. Delaminated

areas will look opaque and cloudy.

•Bulging or deformed shape. If delamination occurs,

the surface shape may change. The surface may have

a bump, a bulge, soft spot, or not be smooth and fair.

•A difference in sound when tapping the surface.

If you gently tap the surface of an undamaged

composite you will hear a consistent sound, usually

a hard, sharp sound. If you then tap a delaminated

area, you will hear a different sound, usually duller,

less sharp.

Unusual noises:

Either a crack or delamination can cause creaking

noises while riding. Think about such a noise as a

serious warning signal. A well maintained bicycle

will be very quiet and free of creaks and squeaks.

Investigate and find the source of any noise. It may

not be a crack or delamination, but whatever is

causing the noise must be fixed before riding.
