Fox Factory has recalled about 11,250 of its Evolution 2013 mountain bike suspension forks because the fork’s damper cylinder/piston can separate and cause the front wheel to detach, posing a fall hazard.
Fox received one report of an incident resulting in shoulder injuries in Italy.
The recalled suspension forks are model year 2013, 32 and 34 Evolution Series with 120mm to 160mm of travel. (A white verison of the 34 Evolution Fork is pictured at right.) The Evolution name and logo are on a sticker on the front fork with the FOX brand name logo. Recalled forks can be identified by the serial number, which is found on the underside of the crown after removing the front wheel. The forks were sold as original equipment on some of the following 2013 model year mountain bikes: BMC, Cannondale, Commencal, Diamondback, GT, Kona, Lapierre, Norco, Orbea, Raleigh, Rocky Mountain, Santa Cruz, Scott, Specialized and Trek. A small quantity of suspension forks were sold to retailers or distributors as aftermarket accessories.
The forks were made in the United States byt Fox Factory, which is based in Watsonville, CA
The bicycles were sold by bicycle retailers nationwide between August 2012 and October 2013 as original equipment on bicycles priced from about $2,000 to $4,400. Products sold for aftermarket use for about $600 to $650.
