Foreword
Taiwan Bicycle Industry Standard (TBIS) is approved and announced by Taiwan Bicycle Association(TBA). The preparatory work of "Taiwan Bicycle Industry Standard" is carried out by the technical expert committee from TBIS. When TBA members are interested in the related standard that has been announced, and after they are approved by the R&D and patent committee of TBA, they will become the member of the technical expert committee of TBIS. TBA and Cycling & Health Tech Industry R&D Center (CHC) are in close cooperation to handle all matters applied and established by TBIS.
Background description:
After 2015, The International Organization for Standardization 4210: 2014 (ISO 4210:2014) will be the most commonly used safety standard in global bicycle industry. Although ISO 4210 is not a mandatory inspection standard in various economic markets, they are still requesting their bicycle products suppliers to follow the basis of ISO 4210 safety requirements. However, this phenomenon represents that they are unable to differentiate the quality and grade differences between bicycles and spare parts. In order to keep up the competitiveness of our bicycle industry in the international market, the technical expert committee of TBIS uses ISO 4210 as their investigation basis and propose a higher level of product safety and standard service, to establish TBIS especially for this purpose. To highlight on the quality, performance and reliability of those components that has passed TBIS inspection, which have already exceeded the international standard. In the meantime, TBIS is developing on the safety standard and testing technology on those bicycle parts that are excluded in ISO 4210, to ensure the product and identify the differences between product performance, which has become an important reference to drive the improvement on Taiwan bicycle industry Research & Design units.
