Hazard

The welding is not sufficiently strong. The frame can therefore break apart due to the weakness at the centre of the bicycle frame. This could cause the rider to fall, which could lead to injuries. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive.

Measures taken

  • Warning consumers of the risks — Manufacturer
  • Recall of the product from end users — Manufacturer
