SRAM is recalling approximately 54,000 Zipp 88v6, 88v7, and 88v8 aluminum front bicycle hubs because the hub flanges can fail. This defect can lead to a sudden wheel collapse while riding, and the company has received one report of a flange failure in the U.S. These hubs were sold nationwide in black, silver, and falcon grey at specialty bicycle stores between May 2010 and January 2015. Consumers should stop using bicycles with these hubs and contact SRAM for a free replacement.
The aluminum flanges on the front wheel hub can break or fail. If this happens while the bicycle is in motion, the wheel can collapse, causing the rider to lose control and crash.
Consumers should immediately stop using bicycles equipped with the recalled front hubs and contact SRAM or local bicycle dealer for a free replacement hub.
