Vaast A/1 bicycles and framesets (35 bike models and 15 framesets) with “VAAST” on both sides of the down tube, “Model A/1” on the left side rear seat, and serial numbers under the bottom bracket (ranges beginning WAWAK0001, WAWAL0001, WAWAA0001, etc.) sold in Berry Red, Sea Blue, Matte Black, and Black Forest Green are affected. They were recalled because the frame can develop a hairline fracture near a weld that can cause the tubes to separate, posing a fall hazard. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and frames and contact Super Wheels Inc. for a replacement frameset.
