Summary

Kona has recalled about 530 of its 2014 Wo bicycles because the bicycle fork can crack or break at the junction of the crown. The company has received one report of a fork breaking, which poses a serious fall hazard to riders. These charcoal black bicycles were sold at authorized Kona dealers nationwide from September 2013 through July 2014. Consumers should stop using the bicycle and contact Kona or a dealer for a free replacement fork and installation.

Risk

The bicycle fork can crack or break at the crown junction during use. If the fork fails while riding, the rider can lose control and fall, potentially resulting in serious injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your bicycle to see if it is a 2014 Kona Wo model with a charcoal black frame and silver decals.
  2. Verify the model by looking for the word 'Wo' on the top tube of the frame and 'Kona' on the down tube of the frame and the side of the seat.
  3. Immediately stop using the recalled bicycle to prevent a potential fall.
