The brand name "Cannondale" appears on the frames of these bicycles. The recalled forks are marked "Carbon" and "Lefty." Magura Bicycle Brakes. These 2001 Gustav M hydraulic disc brakes are the only Gustav brakes with silver brake levers. Supergo Corp. carbon fiber-wrapped aluminum riser mountain bicycle handlebars and 199 pairs of "PAZZAZ" carbon fiber mountain bicycle "bar ends." The bar ends were sold separately and can be bolted on to the end of most mountain bicycle handlebars to assist in climbing. The handlebars are about 23.5 inches long (unless cut by the user) with a .75-inch rise from the clamp to the grips. "PAZZAZ" is written in white letters under each handle grip area. About 6.75 inches from the right end of the handlebar a logo reads "PZ & Company," and about 6.75 inches from the left end of the handlebar a logo reads "PAZZAZ FIBER." The bar ends have a black carbon fiber grip area about 3 inches long with a glossy finish. The carbon fiber section has a logo which reads "PAZZAZ FIBER" in white letters, and the clamp is polished aluminum.

Reason

The recumbent bicycle's front fork steering tube can break, the frame of the 12-inch children's bicycle can break during use, the Cannondale bicycle forks can break, the Magura brakes could fail, the Supergo handlebars can crack and break, causing the rider to lose control of the bicycle, fall and suffer injuries. The carbon fiber wrap on the handlebar can hide cracking of the aluminum handlebar underneath the carbon. The Supergo carbon fiber bar ends can detach from the aluminum clamp.
