REI Recalls 76,000 Kid’s Bikes After Injuries Reported
In June 2024, REI announced a voluntary recall for 75,860 children’s bicycles after kids were seriously injured when the training wheels fell off.
What Bicycles Were Recalled?
REI recalled Co-op Cycles REV 12-inch, 16-inch, or 20-inch Kid’s Bicycles with training wheels (all model years 2022-2024).
Serial numbers included in the recall begin with “ET22,” “ET23,” “01VX” or “07VX.” The serial number is printed underneath the bike frame on the bottom bracket or down tube.
What is the Problem?
The bicycles were recalled because the training wheel assembly knob can loosen and detach from the bicycle, posing fall and injury hazards to the riders.
How Many Kids Were Injured?
REI received 4 reports of the training wheels falling off. Injuries included reports of scrapes, bruising, and one involving broken arms.
What Should I Do?
If training wheels are being used on the bicycle, immediately stop using the bicycle and contact REI for free replacement training wheels.
Starting on 07/15/24, REI will provide this replacement service free of charge for anyone in possession of a bike subject to this recall. Please stop by your local REI store to schedule this service.
If it is not possible to visit an REI store, contact REI and customer service will arrange for parts to be sent to you.
The company warned that installation may be challenging:
“Please note that we anticipate the installation may be challenging for most customers, so we strongly recommend choosing the REI store replacement service.”
