About 280 Vitus 14 and Vitus 16 kid’s bikes from Wiggle are being recalled. The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the bikes don’t meet U.S. regulations for kid’s sidewalk bikes because they have handbrakes but no coaster brake.
No injuries or incidents have been reported.
The bikes were sold on Wiggle.com and ChainReactionCycles.com from January 2017 through April 2021 for about $280 for the VITUS 14 and about $300 for the VITUS 16. They were sold in multiple colors. VITUS is printed across the frame.
Wiggle Ltd. is contacting all purchasers directly and is providing a free replacement wheel with a coaster brake.
