Huffy is recalling about 460 model year 2014 TR 745 and TR-S 740 bicycles with 27.5-inch wheels. The front wheel’s quick release lever can be adjusted incorrectly or left open, allowing it to interfere with the front disc brake assembly and cause the wheel to stop suddenly or detach. The recalled TR 745 has a green frame, while the TR-S 740 has a white frame. These bicycles were sold at Walmart.com, Sears Puerto Rico, and Cost U Less from September 2014 through May 2015. Consumers should stop using the bicycles immediately to receive a free replacement quick release lever.
If the quick release lever on the front wheel hub is left open or becomes loose, it can get caught in the front disc brake assembly. This can cause the front wheel to come to a sudden stop or completely separate from the bicycle frame while in use, leading to a crash and potential injury to the rider.
Consumers should stop using the bicycles immediately and contact Huffy for a free replacement quick release lever for the front wheel.
