Cannondale and the CPSC are recalling about 6,700 Mountain Bicycles with Lefty Speed SL and Lefty Speed DLR Forks. The forks can break during use, causing the rider to lose control of the bicycle, fall and suffer serious injuries.
Cannondale has received 15 reports of the bicycle forks separating, including five reports of injuries including a broken collarbone, a concussion, broken ribs and bruises.
The bikes were sold at authorized Cannondale dealers from June 2006 through May 2007 for between $1,600 and $6,500.
