CPSC and Morpher Warn Consumers to Stop Using and Dispose of Bicycle Helmets Due to Risk of Head Injury; Recalling Firm is Unable to Conduct Recall (Recall Alert)

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Morpher is recalling about 8,500 flat-folding bicycle helmets because they do not comply with federal safety standards for impact protection. These helmets were sold in various colors including black, gray, red, silver, white, and yellow between April 2017 and November 2019. Because the manufacturer is no longer in business, the company cannot conduct a standard recall, and consumers are urged to stop using and destroy the products immediately to prevent serious injury. No injuries have been reported to date.

Risk

The helmets fail to meet federal safety standards, meaning they may not provide adequate protection during a fall or collision, significantly increasing the risk of a severe head injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify your helmet by looking for the 'Morpher' name and logo on the sides and back; the recall affects all one-size flat-folding helmets designed for head circumferences of 52 cm to 58 cm.
  2. Immediately stop using the recalled Morpher flat-folding bicycle helmet.
  3. Dispose of the helmet by cutting the straps and discarding it in the trash to ensure it cannot be used by anyone else.
  4. If you purchased the helmet from Amazon.com, MorpherHelmet.com, or CyclingSafetyGear.com, check your email for direct notification regarding this safety alert.
  5. For additional questions or information, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772.

Your Remedy Options

📋Dispose

Morpher is no longer in business and is unable to conduct the recall. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled helmets and dispose of them to prevent further usage. Amazon and Morpher are contacting all known purchasers directly.
