Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

VP Components has recalled about 5,400 (2,700 pairs) of VP Harrier and Giant Pinner DH bicycle pedals because the pedal body can unexpectedly separate from the spindle while riding. There have been 79 reports of broken spindles and one report of a rider being injured in a fall. These pedals were sold in red, silver, or black and feature either 'Harrier' or 'Giant' printed on the pedal body. Consumers should immediately stop using these pedals and contact the place of purchase for a free replacement.

Risk

If the pedal body separates from the spindle, the rider can lose their balance and fall, leading to serious physical injury. This is caused by a failure where the spindle, which connects the pedal to the bike's crank arm, breaks or detaches.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your bicycle pedals for the 'Harrier' or 'Giant' brand name printed on the pedal body.
  2. Identify if your pedal is a recalled model by looking at the fastener at the end of the spindle; the recalled Harrier and Giant Pinner DH models were sold between May 2017 and December 2017.
  3. Stop using the recalled bicycle pedals immediately to prevent falls or injuries.
  4. Contact the bike shop or online retailer where you originally purchased the pedals to arrange for a free replacement.
