Bicycle Helmets Recalled by UVEX Sports Due to Risk of Head Injury
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The anchor for the helmet's chinstrap can fail, causing the helmets to slide off the head, posing a head injury hazard. The bicycle helmets also do not comply with the impact requirements of the CPSC safety standards for bicycle helmets.
What to do
Consumers should stop using the helmets and contact UVEX for a free compliant helmet or a refund of the purchase price.
