Approximately 11,560 Trek Kickster training bikes for toddlers are being recalled because the steer tube clamp can break unexpectedly. The firm has received 11 reports of these clamps breaking, including one incident resulting in minor scrapes and bruising for a child. These pedal-less bikes were sold in black, blue, red, and pink colors at independent bicycle stores and online at trekbikes.com from August 2012 through April 2019. Consumers should stop using the bikes and return them to an authorized Trek retailer for a free repair.
The steering tube clamp on the bicycle's frame can snap or fail during use, causing the handlebars to detach or lose stability. This can cause a child to lose control and fall, potentially resulting in injuries such as scrapes and bruising.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled bikes away from children and take it to a Trek retailer for a free repair.
