Fact-Checking Policy | TurinBikes

Last updated: February 2026

At TurinBikes, accuracy and trustworthiness are non-negotiable. Every guide, review, comparison, calculator, and recommendation is built on verifiable, aggregated data – not opinions, assumptions, or unverified claims.

This page explains our commitment to fact-checking, the process we follow, and how we handle corrections. The entire Site is researched, written, and maintained solely by Sachin Kadwal.

Our Commitment to Accuracy

We aim to provide helpful, evidence-based information that helps riders make informed decisions. We do this by:

Relying exclusively on large-scale, verifiable data sources (no personal ride tests or subjective opinions).
Cross-verifying every major claim with multiple independent sources.
Regularly updating content to reflect current market realities, new studies, or reported issues.
Publicly logging meaningful corrections and updates.

Fact-Checking & Verification Process

All content follows these steps (detailed in our Research & Testing Methodology):

Topic Research & Shortlisting

Identify high-demand queries and real rider pain points using search trends, forums, and reader feedback.

Data Aggregation

Collect from trusted, high-volume sources:

Manufacturer official specifications and PDFs
Verified user reviews (Amazon, REI, Walmart – 500–15,000+ per popular model)
Community feedback (Reddit r/ebikes/r/cycling, BikeForums)
Independent reviews & tests (Consumer Reports, OutdoorGearLab, credited YouTube long-term testers)
Peer-reviewed health/ergonomics studies (PubMed, Mayo Clinic)
Anonymous reader surveys (Google Forms, 300–1,200 responses per major topic)

Cross-Verification

Every key claim (e.g., comfort rating, battery range, durability) is checked against at least 2–3 independent sources.
Conflicting data is noted and explained (e.g., “Range varies 25–40 miles depending on terrain and rider weight”).
Outliers and fake reviews are filtered out (focus on verified purchases and recent data).

Scoring & Recommendation

Apply consistent, transparent weighted criteria (e.g., Comfort 35–40%, Value 30%) to create objective rankings.
