This was just a fun video to show off strength of carbon fiber and how far it has come, a lot of people have said that it is so brittle and flexy but a lot of bike manufacturers have made some great improvements over the years

The 2 weakest parts of the frame are already broken (seat stays and top tube) but interesting test anyway. To sum up the SL8 frame in a practical sense: A good friend of mine is talented enough to race for a pro continental team in Europe that are sponsored by Specialized. This year they upgraded to the S-Works SL8 and have broken 8 frames in 5 months. Last year riding on the pro version, the team broke significantly less frames although I do not know the exact number. To sum up, if you crash an S-Works SL8 the chances of the frame breaking are pretty high.

As long as the carbon is made well it's tough durable stuff. One problem carbon bikes can have is quality control and a lack of resin to save weight and add stiffness. The 2nd and 3rd Gen carbon bikes where super stiff and bomb proof.

The Tarmac SL8 rear stays crack for no reason. This has happened to me. A month ago I was cleaning the frame with a microfibre cloth and when I went over the rear stay I noticed that it was catching. Unfortunately there was a crack that appeared without a fall, blow or anything else, simply because of normal use. With less than a month of use and the brand's warranty does not cover it. I looked for a legal expert and he told me after his tests that it is because the frame has not withstood the fatigue, so there is a manufacturing fault. Now I have to go to court as the brand does not want to take responsibility - DO NOT BUY SPECIALIZED THERE ARE BETTER BRANDS AND THAT OFFER GUARANTEE.

This wasn’t much helpful testing. Except for the clamp test, in other tests you did, frame doesn’t go under much pressure from those directions you tested. Lateral force on down tube when pedaling hard is near bottom bracket, not much in middle. And last test, regarldess, I think that chain stay/bottom bracket junction was very weak. Even though it is not designed to take a beating from that direction.
@TheChindoboi
@TheChindoboi 5 ай бұрын
Rear chainstay was only weak as it wasn’t a fully closed double triangle having been sawn off and missing a seat stay… If the same test was done to a new bike with a rear wheel torqued in. That rear seat stays would not break. Also considering a bottom bracket only flexes marginally when putting through 800w into the pedals would suggest that normally the bottom bracket is very strong.

He literally said the opposite. Aluminium frames do eventually fatigue fracture. A friend of mine bought a Cannondale supersix from prehistoric age, and proceeded to ride it until the chainstay cracked. Carbon on the other hand should in principle live forever.

Grant, You will end up breaking your bike stand before breaking the carbon top tube.

Are these the new frames Specialized are selling at 40% off? Not that surprising that the frame didn't break. I once had a piece of carbon fibre hockey stick shaft. It is about the same thickness as a top tube and it is IMPOSSIBLE to crush. It has to withstand very rough treatment on the ice and even at just $250 or so, it is impossible to break with your body weight. Super light and the only thing inside was the bladder.
