NEW YORK—Cycling company Shimano is recalling some 760,000 bike cranksets in the United States and Canada due to a crash hazard that has resulted in several reported injuries.
According to a Thursday notice from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the now-recalled crank parts can separate and break, risking crashes. More than 4,500 incidents of the cranksets separating and six injuries have been reported to date—including bone fractures, joint displacement, and lacerations.
