About 6,200 Momentum Vida E+ E-Bikes from Giant Bicycle are being recalled.
According to a press release from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the fork steerer tube on the recalled bicycles can crack, break or separate during use, posing a fall hazard. Giant Bicycles has received four reports of broken fork steerer tubes. No injuries have been reported.
The bikes were sold at authorized Giant Bicycle dealers nationwide and online at https://www.momentum.com/us from September 2019 through May 2025 for between $2,500 and $3,200.
The recall involves the Momentum Vida E+ E-bike. The bicycles come in metallic red, pearl white, metallic navy blue, metallic green, indigo blue, happy mint (light green) and panther (black). The bicycle comes in two frame configurations (mid-step and low-step) and both configurations come in small, medium and large sizes. The unique serial number for each bike is stamped into the frame on the outer side of the left rear dropout and on a printed sticker under the bike’s downtube. “Momentum” is written on the downtube of the bicycle and “Vida E+” is written on the top tube.
Consumers are being encouraged to look at the third character of the bike’s serial number to see if their model is included in the recall. Bikes with a serial number in which the third character is “H”, “J” or “K” are included in the recall and must have their forks replaced free of charge. Bikes with a serial number in which the third character is “G” require additional visual inspection by an authorized Giant Bicycle dealer to determine fork status.
Those impacted can call Giant Bicycle at 866-458-2555 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, e-mail at recall@giantbicycle.com, or visit https://www.momentum-biking.com/us/recall-information, https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us/recall-information, or https://www.liv-cycling.com/us/recall-info, or https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us and click on “Recalls” for more information.
