Tern recalls six folding bike models due to frame cracks at the hinge, which can cause falls. Affected models include Link Uno through P24h; contact Stile Products for free frame replacement or upgrade.
The bike's frame can crack at the hinge on the top tube, posing a fall hazard.
Tern is recalling six specific folding bike models because their frames can crack at the hinge, leading to falls. This hazard affects consumers who own these models and requires immediate action to prevent injury.
The bike's frame can crack at the hinge on the top tube, causing the bike to become unstable and leading to falls. This crack risk is higher when the bike is used under normal conditions without proper maintenance.
Adults who own Tern folding bikes with the recalled models (Link Uno, D7i, D8, P9, P7i, or P24h) are most at risk. Riders using these bikes without proper maintenance could face falls due to frame cracks.
Check for the model name printed on the middle of the top tube. Recalled bikes have a 10-character serial number starting with AI1133 through AI1137 or AI1149 through AI1213 on the bottom bracket shell. The model can also be verified via Stile Products' website using the service tag on the seat tube.
Immediately stop using the recalled bicycles to prevent falls from frame cracks.
Reach out to Stile Products for a free replacement frame installation or an upgrade to a designated model.
Consumers should immediately stop using the bicycles and contact Stile Products or take the bike to an authorized dealer. Consumers will receive a free replacement frame and have it installed at no cost or they can upgrade their bike to one of three designated models at an additional cost.
The recall includes Link Uno, Link D7i, Link D8, Link P9, Link P7i, and Link P24h models.
Look for the model name on the middle of the top tube or check the 10-character serial number starting with AI1133 through AI1137 or AI1149 through AI1213 on the bottom bracket shell.
Stop using it immediately and contact Stile Products for a free replacement frame or upgrade to a designated model.
