Giant Bicycle Recalls Bikes
About 1,000 2009 model year TCR Advanced SL and SL (ISP) Bicycles and Frames are being recalled by Giant Bicycle Inc, of California, because the density of the steerer tubes can cause the forks to crack and break, posing a fall hazard to the consumer.
Giant Bicycle has received one report of the fork cracking.
This recall involves 2009 TCR Advanced SL Team, SL 0, SL 1, SL 2, and SL (ISP) model bicycles and frames in silver, charcoal, blue and red. The words "Giant" and "TCR Advanced SL" are printed on the frame. Steerer tubes with "B", "N" or "P" at the end of the serial number are not included in this recall. Other "TCR" model bicycles are not included in the recall.
The bikes were sold through authorized Giant Bicycle dealers nationwide from August 2008 through December 2008 for between $3,300 and $7,500.
