Pedego is recalling approximately 11,600 electric bicycles because an improperly manufactured electrical cable can cause the bike to accelerate unexpectedly, leading to a fall hazard. The recall includes six models: Interceptor, City Commuter, Boomerang Plus, Ridge Rider, Trail Tracker, and Stretch. These bikes were sold at bicycle stores nationwide and online from January 2018 through August 2020 for between $3,000 and $4,700. Consumers should immediately stop using these bikes and contact a local Pedego dealer for a free repair.
The bike's electrical cable can malfunction and cause the motor to engage and accelerate without warning. Pedego has received five reports of this malfunction, which can cause the rider to lose control and fall.
