Product description
This recall involves model year 2013 through 2016 Cannondale CAADX Cyclocross bicycles equipped with disc brakes. Cyclocross racing combines both off-road and on-road cycling. The bicycles were sold in a variety of colors and configurations. Consumers should inspect their bicycle to determine if it is affected by this recall by confirming: (1) The bicycle has a prominent CAADX marking on the top tube or other location. (2) The bicycle has disc brakes. (3) The inside of the fork leg has a large "ULTRAX" marking. (4) The cable running to the front disc brake is outside of the fork, as opposed to inside the fork. For assistance determining if a bicycle is affected, consumers should bring it to a Cannondale authorized dealer.
Reason for recall
The fork can break, posing a fall hazard with the risk of death and serious injury.
Remedy, what to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycle and take it to the nearest authorized Cannondale dealer for a free repair. Cannondale dealers will replace, free of cost, the bicycle's fork with a full carbon fiber replacement fork.
