Cycling Sports Group is recalling about 3,100 Cannondale Bad Boy and Bad Girl commuter bicycles from the 2010-2012 model years. The bicycle's fork axle can crack during use, which can lead to a sudden loss of control and falls. The firm has received 30 reports of these axles cracking, including one incident where a rider suffered a concussion and bruising. These matte black bicycles were sold at authorized Cannondale dealers nationwide from June 2010 through December 2014 for between $1,000 and $1,800. Consumers should immediately stop using these bicycles and contact an authorized dealer for a free fork replacement.
