CPSC, Recreational Equipment Inc. Announce Recall of Children's Bicycles
Hazard
The alloy frame used for these bicycles can be prone to fatigue failure. Frame failure results in the separation of the fork, head tube, and handlebar away from the rest of the bike, causing a loss of control and crash, and posing a risk of serious injury to the rider.
