Why it was recalled
There is a potential for the cable noodle anchor rivet to dislodge from the brake unit. This can cause one of the two brakes to fail.
Hazard
This would result in the loss of braking power for that individual brake, resulting in extended stopping distance or unexpected braking behaviour. This may pose an accident or injury risk to the rider.
