What happened

ElliptiGO is recalling its 3C, 8C, and 11R elliptical cycles because the front fork can separate and the drive arm axles can detach during use, creating a fall hazard. The affected models are outdoor exercise devices that resemble a combination of an elliptical trainer and a bicycle, used by adults and featuring aluminum frames, 20-inch wheels, and adjustable steering columns. The recall affects 3C and 8C cycles with serial numbers from 11-010-001 through 13-028-102, and 11R cycles with serial numbers from 12-003-069 through 12-020-035. Serial numbers are located on the frame in front of the back wheel near the kickstand attachment point.

Consumers with affected cycles should stop using them immediately. According to the record, affected consumers can visit www.elliptigo.com/safety to locate an authorized repair center, where they can have the fork upgraded with a safety retrofit and/or receive upgraded replacement drive arm axles.
