As an avid triathlete, I could not pass this one by without a post to the blog. It’s hard enough to ride a bicycle down in the aerobars when they work but even harder when they fall apart in your hands. Imagine going downhill about 40 miles per hour and suddenly be left steering with your elbows or forearms. Yikes! Here’s a link to the voluntary recall between CPSC and the aerobar manufacturer, 3T. There is a risk of the rubber grips coming off of the end of the handlebars. The link has the information for replacing the faulty grips.
Sounds like there were only a few hundred sold so hopefully this will help spread the word before any serious injuries occur.
