Performance Flywheel Specification Example for Off-Road Bikes: Low Maintenance Version
Performance Flywheel Specification Example for Off-Road Bikes: Low Maintenance Version
This is a worked specification for performance flywheel in a low maintenance version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The low maintenance version version exists because the duty cycle on off-road bikes is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually packing that arrived crushed at the port.

Example specification
| Item | Performance Flywheel |
|---|---|
| Application | Off-Road Bikes |
| Version | Low Maintenance Version |
| Base material | Powder Coated Steel |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Compliance | ECE R90 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Powder Coated Steel, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- die casting
- gravity casting
- assembly line testing
- laser cutting
- rubber vulcanisation
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run low maintenance version most often specify this build for off-road bikes. Related applications include export programmes, scooter fleets, aftermarket retail, camper conversions, utility trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 1000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ECE R90-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
