Recalled Vaast A/1 bicycle
Check the label first
Compare every letter, number, space and suffix. A similar-looking product with a different suffix may not be part of this recall.
Why it was recalled
The bicycle frame can develop a hairline fracture near a weld, which can cause the tubes to separate, posing a risk of falling.
The firm has had 22 consumers report frame fractures and three consumers report frame tube separation, one of which resulted in a minor injury after falling from the bike.
The official remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the Vaast A/1 bicycles and frame and contact Super Wheels Inc. for a free replacement. Once consumers register their bike at Contact | VAAST Bikes, (www.vaastbikes.com/contact-us/), Super Wheels Inc. will provide the consumer with a replacement frame and pay (up to $200) for a bike shop technician to rebuild the bike with the replacement frame.
