Hazard
The product presents a risk of injuries as the suspension forks can fail prematurely and crack, break or separate during use. The fork is a critical load-bearing component of the complete bicycle, and inadequate structural integrity may compromise steering and control during normal use, potentially leading to a loss of control and risk of injury. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
Remedy
The product has been withdrawn from the market and recalled from end users. Orbea recommend that consumers stop using the product immediately and visit Avant Support Centre — Orbea to check whether their bike fork is affected.
