The CPSC and the QBP company now recall Quality-branded bicycle handlebars and the bicycles with which they are sold.  These carbon handlebars may unexpectedly fracture where brake and shift levers are attached to them leading to loss of bike control, crashes, and injuries to riders and bystanders.  About 8740 units were sold in the US and 350 were sold in Canada.  Stop riding the bicycles with these recalled handlebars and bring the involved bicycles to the place of purchase for handlebar replacement with a safe carbon handlebar or an aluminum handlebar.  For additional information about this recall, reach QBP at 1-800-346-3340 or via the email [email protected].
