Orbea has recalled about 715 Avant bicycles and carbon framesets because the front fork can crack during use. This recall includes models sold with hydraulic disc brakes or those designed to be compatible with them. The bicycles were sold at authorized retailers nationwide from August 2013 to June 2014 for between $1,200 and $9,000. While no injuries have been reported, consumers should immediately stop using these bicycles and contact Orbea for a free fork replacement.
The bicycle's front fork can develop cracks and fail while riding. This poses a significant fall hazard, which could result in serious physical injury to the rider.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and contact Orbea for a free replacement and installation of the bicycle front fork.
