Plain-English summary
GT Bicycles Inc. is announcing an inspection and repair program for the forks on all 1995 GT "Aggressor" model bicycles. This program affects approximately 4,000 bicycles equipped with forks made by Polygon Industries, Inc. of Taiwan, R.O.C.
The forks could break during use, causing the rider to lose control of the bicycle and fall. CPSC is aware of 13 incidents in which bolts in the bicycles loosened, causing the bicycle forks to break. Although no serious injuries have been reported, the potential for injury is significant.
One thousand GT-authorized retailers sold the bicycles nationwide between October 1994 and March 1995 for about $400.00. The bicycles have either a bright blue or candy red finish with "Aggressor" written on the frame and are available in adult sizes from 14 1/2 inches to 22 inches. Consumers should stop using their 1995 GT "Aggressor" bikes and bring them to any authorized GT Bicycles dealer for a free inspection. Dealers will inspect the bicycles, tighten any loose bolts, and replace damaged forks at no cost to the consumer.
