If you're the type of cyclist who transports your precious bike on the roof of your car, you probably live with a quiet fear: the day you forget it's there and end up in a situation where your car and bike can't both fit — and inevitably, the bike loses.
You've just had a great ride, feeling accomplished and ready to unwind at home. As you pull up to your house, press the garage door opener, and start driving in, the sound of metal crunching suddenly cuts through your thoughts. No! Your bike is on the roof, and you just slammed into the garage door. “Ugh, what now?â€
As the reality hits, you sit in stunned silence, realizing that your peaceful afternoon has been shattered — not just by the noise, but by the damage to your bike. The carbon frame that once felt so strong is now crumpled, and your heart sinks.
So, how can you avoid this nightmare from happening again?
One simple solution is to place something in front of the garage door that forces you to stop and check if your bike is still on the roof. A traffic cone or a piece of wood works well, but it’s only effective if no well-meaning neighbor or family member moves it without asking. It’s easy to forget, especially when you're rushing out the door early in the morning.
Another option is to hang bright colored tape from the bottom of the garage door. When the door opens, the tape acts as a visual reminder: “Your bike is on top!†This method is always in place, making it more reliable than physical objects that can be moved. If you pair this with placing the garage door remote on the passenger seat or floor, you increase your chances of remembering to take the bike down before entering.
Even with these precautions, accidents can still happen. That’s where Velosurance comes in. With a bicycle insurance policy, you’re protected against unexpected damage — even if it’s just a momentary lapse in focus.

Box-beam Production Line
With the development of the steel structure market, the use of box beams in bridges, power stations, boilers, and high-rise buildings is increasing. Comparing from the stress point of view, the ratio of the torsional constant of the I-shaped interface and the box-shaped interface with the same cross-sectional area is about 1:500, and the ratio of the maximum torsional shear stress is approximately 30:1. And its "â–¡"-shaped cross-sectional form has high bending resistance under the action of bidirectional stress. In addition, from the overall stability, the box beam is also better than the I beam. Therefore, in a specific application, the box beam has its unique structural advantages, which can achieve better economic advantages.
Scope of application:
This production line is suitable for the production of high-strength box beam structures where the diameter of the ventilation holes on the partitions in the main column is small, and the four sides of the partitions must be welded. Including the prefabrication and assembly welding of the main box, the prefabricated installation of the internal partition, the external corbel, etc.
Features:
1. Good quality and high efficiency.
2. Through careful and meticulous technical preparation and design of special paired tires, errors can be well controlled and construction difficulty is reduced. At the same time, the adjustment process of the group alignment is reduced, which not only ensures the quality, but also greatly improves the production efficiency.
3. The separator is welded by electro-slag welding, which improves the production efficiency, reduces the production cost, and solves the problem of difficult welding of the internal separator.
