Summary

Cycling Sports Group is recalling about 9,700 model year 2013 through 2016 Cannondale CAADX cyclocross bicycles equipped with disc brakes. The bicycle's fork can break during use, which can lead to a crash. There have been 11 reports of fork failure worldwide, including seven serious injuries such as spinal damage and concussions, and one reported fatality. These bicycles were sold at authorized Cannondale dealers nationwide from August 2012 through August 2017 for between $1,000 and $2,220.

Risk

The fork can fracture and break suddenly, causing the rider to lose control and fall. This defect has resulted in serious injuries and one death.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled Cannondale CAADX bicycle.
  2. Inspect your bicycle for a 'CAADX' marking on the top tube, disc brakes, and a large 'ULTRAX' marking on the inside of the fork leg.
  3. Check the front disc brake cable; if the cable runs outside of the fork (rather than inside), it is likely part of the recall.
  4. Take the bicycle to the nearest authorized Cannondale dealer for a free repair. The dealer will replace the existing fork with a new, full carbon fiber replacement fork at no cost to you.
  5. Contact Cycling Sports Group at 844-370-1536 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, email custserve@cyclingsportsgroup.com, or visit www.cannondale.com and click on 'Recalls & Notices' for more information.
  6. For additional questions or to report a safety incident, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772.
