CEN test??????

[ferrit]

Good point!!!!

Now I need to decide whether to go for white or black :?

Thats a no brainer for me, its gotta be a Barry White, the white frames are bog standard, the white glitter with gold look too similar to the standard but the black ones look a little bit more special

I thouh new tests only applies to full bike not frame only .

It would make sense but the CEN test has replaced the old BS one, so a frame would still have to be fit for purpose and tested i would imagine :?

If its anything like any other European safety testing legistaltion it will relate to all components. If you take car mods as an example anything sold off the shelf should now carry a CE mark to be legal.

I am pretty sure they dont . that is why a lot of small frame builders dont offer full build as it is too expensive to put them through the tests .
