Urgent! Has your road bike had a product safety recall?
The government recently created a new and easy to use product safety recall site. This site allows you to search for products that have been recalled or to report an unsafe product. Road biking is dangerous enough just fighting oncoming cars and pedestrians let alone a possible defective product! A quick and simple scan led me to find that a crank set that was installed on many different road bikes could be a crash hazard. Here are a few of those road bikes that had this crank set:
2010 Bianchi Sempre Ultegra
2010 Cannondale Six Carbon 5
2011 Felt F75
2011 Felt F75x
2010 Quintana Roo CD.0.1
There was several others that have been recalled. Click here to see the official recall notice for the crank set and the list of bicycles affected.
