Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

SAHN Designs is recalling approximately 2,000 SAHN Classic SH523 adult bicycle helmets because they do not meet federal impact safety standards. While no injuries have been reported, these helmets may fail to protect a rider's head during a crash or fall. The recalled helmets were sold in various matte and gloss colors at boutique bicycle dealers between May 2013 and December 2015. Consumers should stop using these helmets immediately and contact SAHN Designs for a free replacement.

Risk

The helmets do not comply with federal impact requirements, which means they may not provide adequate protection during a collision, significantly increasing the risk of a serious head injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Check the right side of the helmet's outer shell for the 'SAHN' brand name to see if it is a SAHN helmet.
  2. Look inside the helmet for a white sticker label to confirm it is the 'SH-523 Classic' model and verify the production date.
  3. Immediately stop using any SAHN Classic SH523 helmet affected by this recall.
  4. Contact SAHN Designs at 800-642-7086 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. PT Monday through Friday to receive a free replacement helmet.
