BikeE Recumbent Bicycle
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
BikeE Corp. has recalled recumbent bicycles from model years 1999 through 2001 that have 27-inch-tall seat backs with silver-colored frames and black mesh backs. The hazard is that the recumbent seats can crack and break, causing the seat to detach from the frame and potentially injuring the rider. Bicycles with seat backs lower than 27 inches or those with silver-colored rings around the black plastic clamps are not included in this recall.
Consumers who own a recalled bicycle should stop using it immediately. According to the recall notice, affected consumers can take the bicycle to the dealer from which it was purchased, though the dealer will determine whether repairs can be performed and whether a charge will apply.
