Hazard

The pedal's bearing cap can fail causing the pedal to come off the bicycle. This poses a fall hazard for riders.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the recalled pedals immediately and contact TIME SPORT INTERNATIONAL to arrange for the pedals to be inspected and, if necessary, receive a free repair.

Incidents & injuries

The firm has received reports of eight incidents in which the pedal came off the bicycle, resulting in minor injuries.

Product description

The recalled pedals are black or gray. They are made of composite material and are mounted to either a steel or titanium pedal axle and bearing unit by using a threaded aluminum bearing cap. Pedals that have a gold dot on the underside of the pedal body just inside where the bearing cap is mounted to the pedal body are not included in this recall.

Sold on

Bicycle stores, mail order, and online bicycle dealers nationwide from October 2004 through August 2006 for between $75 and $300.
