About 350 2010 Redline Conquest Pro Bicycles and Framesets from Seattle Bike Supply, of Kent, WA are being recalled. A statement from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said the
bicycle's fork legs can separate from the fork crown and cause the rider to lose control, posing a risk of serious injury if the rider falls.
The firm is aware of three reports of forks separating with minor injuries reported in one of the incidents.
The recall involves all 2010 Redline Conquest Pro Cyclocross bicycles and framesets. The bicycles and framesets were sold in pearl
white/blue and have aluminum frames with carbon fiber forks and
aluminum steerer tubes.
The product was sold at bicycle specialty stores nationwide between
August 2009 and November 2009 for about $1,900 for the bicycle and
about $550 for the frameset.
