Vibration Testing a Bike Rack Before it Hits the Road

admin — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 19:39:26 +0000

Living in Oregon, we see a lot of bikes and bike racks around, and, thankfully, we’ve never seen any bikes fall off their racks or bike racks fall off their cars. What gives us this confidence? Testing of course. And custom bike rack testing is yet another type of testing CascadeTek offers. We shot this video in the vibration test lab to share with you all. Click below to see how we replicate actual vibration bike racks experience while on moving cars.

From aerospace to consumer products, we can run Vibration to Thermal Shock testing on just about anything. Our capabilities have grown over the last 17 years, please visit our Testing Services page for a list of them all.
