Cycling Sports Group is recalling about 1,975 front racks with bamboo trays used on Cannondale Treadwell bicycles because the racks can detach from the bike. This recall was initiated after reports of two incidents where the tray detached and hit the front wheel, causing one rider to suffer minor cuts and bruises and another to experience bruising and a concussion. The affected racks were sold both as original equipment on bicycles and as separate add-on accessories between April 2019 and June 2020. Consumers should stop using the rack immediately and contact an authorized dealer for a free repair.
The front rack can suddenly detach and fall into the front wheel while the bicycle is in motion, causing the wheel to stop abruptly and throwing the rider from the bike. This has already resulted in reported injuries including a concussion and various cuts and bruises.
Consumers should immediately stop riding the bicycle until the front rack is removed, and contact their local authorized Cannondale dealer or Cycling Sports Group to arrange for a free repair.
