BMC Switzerland is recalling about 840 model year 2018 and 2019 Teammachine SLR01 DISC performance road bicycles and framesets. The fork steerer tube on these bikes can crack or break during use, which can cause the rider to lose control and fall. There have been four reports of the fork steerer tube breaking, including one incident resulting in a shoulder injury that required hospitalization and surgery. These premium bikes were sold at authorized BMC dealers nationwide from July 2017 through October 2019 for between $4,500 and $12,500.
The fork steerer tube, which connects the handlebars to the front wheel, can suddenly crack or snap during operation. If this happens while riding, the rider can lose steering control, leading to a fall and serious physical injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using recalled bicycles and contact their local BMC authorized dealer for a free inspection and free replacement fork.
