What happened

The affected models are the Interceptor (including Platinum Edition), City Commuter (including Mid Drive Edition and Black Edition), Boomerang Plus, Ridge Rider, Trail Tracker (including Gorilla Edition), and Stretch (including Dual Drive Edition). The model name appears on the chain guard or chain stay, and all recalled bikes have "Pedego" printed on the frame.
