Why and when to measure

• After an accident: for your personal safety.
  A distorted steering head angle and therefore changed castor is one of the reasons for high speed wobbling.
• As documentation for insurers and surveyors.
  After the insurance has settled, it is difficult to make further claims, e.g. a bent frame.
• To provide documental validity when selling a used bike.
  Legally, every accident or even falling over, must be declared to the buyer. The seller may be required, even after a long period of time, to take back the bike. Arguments concerning the condition of the frame or chassis will be avoided by providing documentary proof.
• Because it’s long been standard practise in the automobile branch.
  Wheel alignment measurement of accident damaged cars is routine practise in nearly every workshop.
• Before starting repairs or restoration work:
  to exclude the possibility of a false investment. – Checking the frame geometry is the first requirement before ordering lots of expensive spare parts.
• When buying a used bike:
  For your personal safety..
  Minor accident traces are often found on used bikes. To determine precisely the extent of the damage, a measurement printout is required.
• With handling problems:
  as an important element in determining the fault. – Defects in frame geometry are easily and quickly detectable with the frame gauges of Scheibner Measuring Technology.
  Expensive and time consuming replacement of parts and test drives are avoided.
