More than 3,000 bicycle accessories were recalled and were sold on Amazon

During the epidemic, outdoor cycling has been popular among people, and the sales of related products are also quite good. However, the quality of outdoor products usually has strict requirements.

 

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission ( CPSC) reports that bicycle accessory company Burley is recalling more than 3,000 of its Ballz QR Skewers bicycle quick - release skewer models because the skewer is susceptible to bending, which could cause injury to cyclists .

 

The quick release lever is a common bicycle accessory, mainly used to fix the wheels of bicycles and adjust the height of the seat. The purpose of tightening the wheels is achieved by turning the lever. Currently, almost all sports bicycles are equipped with quick release levers as standard.

 

The recalled bicycle quick-release levers were sold in two ways: as separate components, model numbers 960219, 960220 and 960222; and as gifts with Coho XC cargo trailers, model numbers 935101 and 960219.

 

 

Recalled quick release levers

 

The CPSC said that if a bicycle quick-release lever bends, it could cause the bicycle to fall and injure the rider. Burley has received 21 reports of the quick-release lever failing , but no injuries have been reported so far.

 

According to the CPSC recall information, the product was made in China and was sold online at rei.com , burley.com and Amazon , as well as at national bicycle retailers , for about $30 between August 2018 and February 2021. 2,935 units were sold in the United States and 260 units in Canada, and all of these products are currently subject to recall.

 

CPSC recommends that consumers who have purchased the bicycle quick-release lever should stop using the product and contact the company through the Burley official website, phone or email to obtain the right to a free replacement product.

 

Enter the relevant keywords on Amazon and you can see that there are still many similar quick-release levers on sale. In the reviews of this type of product, the reasons for the negative reviews given by consumers are not only due to quality problems that cause easy bending, but also many buyers said that the product size is incorrectly marked, resulting in unusable situations.

 

Therefore, in addition to ensuring product quality, sellers must also provide good explanations in the product description and details interface to avoid misleading consumers.
