What's the Problem?
According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) [1], this recall affects Bontrager Satellite City Pedals, which were installed as original equipment on Trek “Allant+,” “Dual Sport+,” “FX 2,” “FX 3,” “Verve 2,” “Verve 3,” and “Verve+” model bicycles.
"If the recalled pedals are incorrectly installed by the retailer during assembly, they can fall off the crank arm of the bicycle, posing fall and injury hazards to the rider," CPSC said. "Trek has received 132 reports of the recalled pedals loosening, locking up or falling off, including seven reports of riders falling and experiencing injuries, including scrapes, bruises and road rash."
“ZTR02” is stamped on the bike’s pedal and on the pedals that were sold separately as a replacement part. The pedals have orange reflectors on the outside edges.
The recalled bikes were sold online and at Trek Bicycle stores and other bicycle stores nationwide from January 2018 through April 2021 for between $600 and $6,000. The pedals were also sold separately for about $30.
If you purchased any Bontrager bike pedals that are affected by this recall, you should stop using them and contact your local authorized Trek retailer for instructions on receiving free installation of replacement pedals.
This recall began on May 26, 2021.
