Aero bars handlebar extensions
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Profile-Design LLC is recalling certain bicycle aero bars due to a safety hazard with the brackets that hold the forearm pads where riders rest their arms during use. The brackets can loosen or separate while riding, which may cause the rider to lose control and crash. The recall affects "Carbon X" aero bars, which are complete handlebar and stem systems marked with "Profile Design" and "Carbon X," and "Carbon Stryke" aero bars, which attach to existing handlebars and are marked with "Profile Design" and "Carbon Stryke." Both types are black in color. Aero bar ZB brackets that are welded together or have a spring-loaded flip-up design are not included in this recall.
According to the recall notice, consumers who have the affected aero bars should stop using them immediately and contact Profile-Design LLC to receive two free replacement brackets.
