Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Wishbone Design is recalling about 400 Recycled Edition (RE) bikes because the handlebar can pinch a child's fingers where it connects to the bike frame. The recall includes the 2-wheeler and 3-in-1 models made from black recycled plastic with 12-inch white tires. There have been four reports of incidents, including two serious injuries that required stitches and restorative surgery. Consumers should immediately stop children from using these bikes and contact the company or their retailer for a free neoprene handlebar cover designed to fix the hazard.

Risk

A child's fingers can become caught and pinched in the gap where the handlebar attaches to the frame, which has resulted in severe lacerations requiring surgery.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop children from using the Recycled Edition (RE) bikes and move them out of their reach.
  2. Identify your bike by checking for the 'Wishbone' logo embossed on the bike fork and checking the production date dial located on the front frame under the seat.
  3. Check if your bike has a date code of December 2013 or May 2014 (the year is in the center of the dial and the arrow points to the month).
  4. Contact Wishbone Design Studio at 888-748-7453 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or the store where you purchased the bike, to receive a free neoprene handlebar cover.
