Summary

IKEA is recalling about 4,900 SLADDA bicycles because the drive belt can suddenly break while in use. This recall affects both the 26-inch and 28-inch models of the light grey aluminum-frame bicycles sold between August 2016 and January 2018. While no injuries have been reported in the U.S., consumers should immediately stop riding the bikes and return them to any IKEA store for a full refund.

Risk

The bicycle's drive belt can snap, causing the rider to lose control or pedaling power unexpectedly, which poses a serious fall hazard.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled 26-inch and 28-inch SLADDA bicycles.
  2. Check your bicycle for identification: 'IKEA' is printed at the bottom of the seat tube near the crank, and a sticker on the bottom of the down tube lists the article number.
  3. Verify if your article number matches the recalled products: 303.267.28 for the 26-inch model or 603.267.36 for the 28-inch model.
  4. Return the affected bicycle to any IKEA store location to receive a full refund.
  5. For more information, contact IKEA toll-free at 888-966-4532 anytime or visit www.ikea-usa.com and click on 'Product Recalls' at the top of the page.
