Identifying features

Other
Affected brakes are identifiable by the date code located at the rear of the brake arm. Affected brakes will have a date code between 01JUN14 and 26MAY17.

What are the defects?

There is a potential for the cable noodle anchor rivet to dislodge from the brake unit. This can cause one of the two brakes to fail.

What are the hazards?

This would result in the loss of braking power for that individual brake, resulting in extended stopping distance or unexpected braking behaviour. This may pose an accident or injury risk to the rider.

What should consumers do?

Consumers should stop using the bicycle and contact SRAM DSD on 03 9212 6100 to arrange a replacement product.
