Trek has recalled about 330 model year 2015 Superfly 9.8 FS SL, X1, and XT bicycles. These mountain bikes are equipped with Bontrager Approved Carbon seatposts that can crack and break during use. Trek has received two reports of the seatposts failing, though no injuries have been reported. The affected bicycles were sold at bike stores nationwide from September 2014 through July 2015 for between $3,500 and $5,300. Owners should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and contact an authorized Trek retailer for a free replacement seatpost and a $20 coupon.
The carbon seatpost can crack and break while riding, which can cause the rider to lose control or fall from the bicycle, posing a risk of injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and contact an authorized Trek retailer for a free replacement seatpost plus a $20 coupon toward any Bontrager merchandise. The coupon can be used through December 31, 2015.
