What happened

QBP is recalling WeThePeople Envy BMX bicycles and ECLAT Aeon BMX cranksets because the left end of the crankset spindle can break, which creates a fall hazard for riders. The recalled Envy BMX bicycles have either a 20.6 or 21 inch chromoly frame painted dark gold, with a bottom bracket stamped "ENVY20.6" or "ENVY21." The ECLAT Aeon BMX cranksets are two-piece steel gears located at the front of the bicycle chain, identifiable by the markings "ESS Eclat 22mm" printed on the left side of the spindle and "Aeon" printed on the crank arm next to the pedal, with "Eclat Germany" and either "170mm" or "175mm" printed on the inside of the crank arm.

Consumers who own the recalled bicycles or cranksets should immediately stop riding them and return to the store where they were purchased for a free inspection and free replacement spindle.
