Colnago recalls CF10 and V1-r racing bikes with front brake detachment hazard. Affected models have specific color and model number markings. Stop using and get free inspection for safety.
The front brakes can detach from fork during use, posing a crash hazard.
Colnago is recalling CF10 and V1-r racing bicycles and frame kits because the front brakes can detach from the fork during use, causing crashes. This hazard affects bikes sold with specific color and model markings.
The front brake mounting hole can become too shallow, causing the brake to detach from the fork while riding. This detachment can lead to loss of control and crashes, especially during high-speed activities.
Racing cyclists and bike enthusiasts who own Colnago CF10 or V1-r models with 28-inch wheels. Riders using these bikes are at highest risk due to the potential for brake detachment during normal use.
Check for 'Colnago for Ferrari' on the downtube and Ferrari logo on the seat tube for CF10 models. For V1-r models, look for 'Colnago' on the downtube and Ferrari logo on the crossbar. Model numbers CF10 or V1-r are on both sides of the front fork.
Immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and frame kits to prevent potential brake detachment and crashes.
