Sykkelprodusenten Cannondale tilbakekaller nå flere sykler av modellen Dave, en sykkel laget for dirt- og freeridesykling.
Modellen ble lansert for et par år siden, men nå er det i følge Cannondale avdekket en svakhet i ramma som gjør at den potensielt kan knekke.
Cannondale i Norge ved Helge Haugstad bekrefter at dette også gjelder sykler som er solgt i Norge:
– Våre forhandlere bistår oss med å få byttet ramme, på de syklene som er rammet av denne recallen i Norge.
Tilbakekallingen fra Cannondale:
At Cannondale, we know our riders demand the highest levels of performance, quality, and safety, and we hold ourselves and Cannondale products to that standard.
We have identified a safety issue with the Cannondale Model Year 2021-23 Dave bicycles and framesets. The bicycle headtube/downtube weld can become damaged and separate from the bicycle frame, posing fall and injury hazards. As such, we are conducting a product recall of these bicycles in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Cannondale dealers and riders should inspect the bicycle to determine if they have a Cannondale Model Year 2021-23 Dave bicycle or bicycle frameset. A consumer can identify an impacted bicycle or bicycle frameset by the presence of “Dave” painted on the bicycle frame top-tube. If you have a Cannondale Model Year 2021-23 Dave bicycle or bicycle frameset, please refrain from riding it until a Cannondale dealer can replace it.
Please contact your local authorized Cannondale dealer or Cannondale to arrange for an authorized Cannondale dealer to replace the bicycle frame at no charge.
We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your patience, and for riding Cannondale.
Sincerely, The Cannondale Team
