[quote]Carbon handlebar and seatpost test on german Bike Magazine
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The german Bike magazine has tested some carbon parts on their last two issues. The tests consisted of laboratory tests where they try to simulate the forces which the parts are subjected in real life. So far they've tested carbon handlebars and seatposts. On both tests they tested 3 specimen of each model in the laboratory.
Here are the summary's of the test results.
Carbon handlebar test (Bike 10/2008):
On the carbon handlebar test they tested the bars in combination with a stem from the same manufacturer.
FSA K-Force Riser (178 g) = super
Ritchey WCS Carbon Riser (187 g) = super
Specialized S-Works Pro (151 g) = super
Syntace Vector 31.8 (184 g) = super
Easton Monkeylite XC (175 g) = very good
Race Face Next SL Carbon 3/4 Riser (170 g) = good
6th Element Indium X (150 g) = weak
Maxm M1 (112 g) = weak
Progress PG-202 (200 g) = weak
Syncros Bulk CF (204 g) = weak
Titec Pluto Riser Bar (164 g) = weak
6th Element, Maxm and Specialized were straight bars, other riser bars.
Note that Bike has tested aluminium handlebars on laboratory previously and as far as I remember even higher percentage of the aluminium parts broke on that test compared to carbon bar test.
Carbon seatpost test (Bike 11/2008):
FSA K-Force Carbon Lite (350*31.6 mm, 260 g) = super
FSA K-Force Carbon Lite (350**27,2 mm, 232 g) = super
Syntace P6 Carbon (400*31.6 mm, 229 g) = super
Truvativ Team Carbon Double Clamp (350*31.6 mm, 259 g) = super
XLC Composite Pro (350*31.6 mm, 264 g) = super
Race Face Next SL (400*31.6 mm, 255 g) = very good
Ritchey WCS Carbon 1 Bolt (400*31.6 mm, 224 g) = very good
Ritchey WCS Carbon 1 Bolt (350*27.2 mm, 177 g) = very good
Pro Vibe Vollcarbon (400*31.6 mm, 194 g) = good
Easton EC90 Zero (400*31.6 mm, 198 g) = weak
т.е. зависит от модели-производителя-проч. (и лайтовые ломаются лучше, помясистее - крепче).
и по сравнению с тестами алю-палок, у карбо рез-ты получше (у алю сломали больше)
