Conventional and Integrated Lite Headsets Recalled for Crash Hazard
Hazard
The headsets mount to bicycle frames and fasten to the front fork assembly. A protruding component of the headset can contact the steering tube of the front fork assembly, score or scratch the steering tube, and weaken the structural integrity of the front fork. The front fork could break, causing the handlebars to separate from the bicycle during use and result in a crash.
What You Should Do
Consumers should stop riding bicycles with these headsets and inspect their front fork assembly for scoring damage. M2Racer will refund the purchase price of returned headsets.
