The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a recall for about 2,000 (in addition, about 1,600 were sold in Canada) Sahn Classic bicycle helmets, which are made for urban cycling and commuting.
The recall stated that the helmets do not comply with the impact requirements of the federal safety standard for bicycle helmets, posing a risk of head injury.
Consumers were advised to immediately stop using the recalled bicycle helmets and contact Sahn Designs for a free replacement helmet.
The recall involves Sahn Classic SH523 adult bicycle helmets. “SAHN” is printed on the outer shell of the helmet on the right side. The production date and “SH-523 Classic” are printed on the white sticker label on the inside of the helmet.
