Eecycleworks is recalling about 400 "eebrake" model aftermarket bicycle brakes sold between September 2008 and March 2011. The bridge of these brakes can crack during use, which can lead to a sudden loss of braking power and cause the rider to fall. There have been two reports of the brakes cracking, including one incident that resulted in scrapes and bruises. Consumers should immediately stop using bicycles equipped with these brakes and contact the company for a free replacement bridge.
The structural bridge component of the brake system can develop cracks, compromising the integrity of the brakes. If the bridge fails while riding, it creates a fall hazard that can lead to serious injury, as evidenced by reports of riders suffering scrapes and bruises.
Consumers should immediately stop riding bicycles with the recalled brakes and contact eecycleworks or the retailer where they purchased the brakes for a free replacement bridge.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
