Additional information:
The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (“ACCC”) reports the following bicycles are subject to this recall:

• Cannondale Bad Boy and Bad Girl Bicycles, please see a complete VIN/model list of affected Bicycles as well as a dealer instruction sheet on how to handle this recall available here: http://www.productsafety.gov.au/system/files/recall/BAD%20BOY%20RECALL%20Consumer%20Notice%20AUS.pdf

According to the ACCC, the fork on the recalled Cannondale Bicycle can develop cracking and over time, lead to the separation of the front axle from the fork. If cracking is not identified in time and the front axle does, indeed, separate from the Bicycle, it can lead to loss of control of the Bicycle with consequential falls and serious injury.

If you believe you have purchased or have in your possession the recalled Bicycles, please do not use them. Instead, kindly read the above recall notice poster. Visit an authorised Cannondale dealer for inspection of the fork and possible replacement.
