BKU007 / PRODUCT + STANDARD EVIDENCE

Verify the field. Preserve the identity scope.

BKU006 deepens exact product evidence while keeping product identity, field provenance, compatibility claims, offer state and editorial rationale separate. Evidence can become stale or unknown; missing values are never filled from another generation or same-name product.

01 / EVIDENCE STATE

Current, stale, unknown and scope-warning are different states.

All 51 loaded field-evidence records were checked on 2026-09-10 and are current under the BKU006 evidence policy. Stale is supported but is not fabricated when no record currently qualifies.

Current

51 field records

Exact official source, identity scope still matches, checked inside the policy window.

Stale

0 current audit records

A future stale field remains historical evidence but loses current-state presentation until reverified.

Unknown

3 explicit unknowns

Model year, generation label or code is not invented when the exact source does not state it.

Scope warning

Diverge E5 example

Same-family display names can point to different exact product pages and specifications. BKU will not merge them by name.

Identity-scope example

The preserved Diverge E5 source states 700x35 mm tires, while a separate current Specialized Diverge E5 - Shimano Claris page states 700x38c. BKU keeps both source scopes separate rather than silently overwriting one with the other.

02 / COMPATIBILITY COMPARISON

Compare evidence states, not brand-family assumptions.

Select two exact product identities. BKU returns only a loaded pairwise evidence state. Matching speeds, brand names or graph neighbors do not become compatibility.

Choose two exact product identities.

No transitive compatibility inference is permitted.

No pairwise evidence evaluated.

03 / SOURCE-BACKED COHORT

Ten exact identities. Fifty-one field evidence records.

The cohort remains deliberately bounded and auditable. BKU007 adds brake-caliper, rotor, driver-body and hanger/interface identities so exact products can connect to source-backed standards without activating commerce.

04 / RESEARCH FLOW

Buying research stays open-ended.

Use the technical systems already built in BKU before any future offer layer enters the workflow.

0active offers in BKU006

No price, retailer, inventory, shipping, affiliate destination or sponsored ranking is allowed to appear as current commerce data.

BKU007 / STANDARDS GRAPH

Matching interface labels are questions, not guarantees.

Open the standards layer to see exact requirements marked established, missing, stale, conflicting or unknown. Zero-count states remain visible instead of being fabricated.

BKU008 / ASSEMBLY RESEARCH

Exact products can now be inspected as bounded research sets.

The assembly inspector shows established, missing and unknown interface requirements without generating a system compatibility or ready-to-ride verdict.

BKU010 / GAP NAVIGATION

Missing product evidence now has an explicit next-research path.

Research paths preserve exact identity and provenance boundaries while showing which evidence surface to inspect next.

ICU-EXPEDITION-025 / EVIDENCE SNAPSHOT

Dates and availability belong beside the claim scope.

The active Bikes evidence records in this candidate are a supplied snapshot, not live web checks. The R000013 evidence ledger records source access on 2026-09-10, and the availability review records checks on 2026-09-11. Source-access dates, availability-review dates, next-review dates, blocked states and scope-review states stay visible so a reachable URL is never treated as automatic proof that a claim is still current.
