CPSC, BikeE Announce Recall of Recumbent Bicycle Suspension Forks
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The link pins in the forks can fall out, causing the rider to lose control of the bicycle, fall, and possibly suffer serious injuries.
What to do
Consumers should stop using these bicycles immediately. The firm, BikeE, is out of business and cannot be contacted. As the firm is no longer involved with this recall, consumers can take a recalled bicycle to the dealer from which purchased, but it is up to the dealer as to whether the repair can be performed, and whether there is a charge.
