Reason the product is recalled
The affected bikes have a front and rear cable operated braking system which requires manual adjustment and does not comply with Australian Standards - Competition & Consumer Act 2010 - Consumer Protection Notice No.24 of 2011.
The hazards to consumers
Once the brake pads begin to wear, manual adjustment is required at the brake calipers. Failure to make proper adjustments could result in brake failure, potentially resulting in serious injury to the rider.

Immediately stop using the bike and do not use it until a hydraulic braking system has been fitted. Contact Global Ringwood at 3/23 Stennett Road Ingleburn NSW 2565 or by phone on 0425 428 777.
