The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that Quality Bicycle Products has recalled some of its Salsa Cycles Cutthroat Bicycles due to the bike posing an injury risk to riders. The bikes, which were sold between Sept. 2019 and Sept. 2020 at retailers throughout North America, are susceptible to having the frame’s fork crack. So far, the company has been notified of seven incidences of forks cracking, though there have been no reported injuries. The recalled bikes include the brand’s Salsa Cutthroat GRX 810 Di2, GRX810 1x, GRX 600, and Apex 1 bikes, as well as its Salsa Cutthroat frame sets and the Salsa Cutthroat Carbon Deluxe V2 aftermarket fork in both gloss and matte finishes. Ultimately, Salsa Cycles’ recall affects approximately 600 bikes sold in the United States and an additional 100 bikes sold in Canada. “Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles, contact Salsa Cycles, and bring the recalled Salsa Cutthroat bicycles, frame sets, and aftermarket forks to a Salsa authorized retailer for inspection and free installation of a replacement fork,” the CPSC warns.
