Trek Quick Release Recall
Safety Recall Notice: Quick Release Skewer Recall
A number of model year 2000 through 2015 Trek bicycles were made with a quick-release lever that opens past 180°. If the quick release is improperly adjusted or left open, the quick release lever can become caught in the front wheel disc. If this happens, the front wheel could separate or come to a sudden stop and the rider could lose control of the bicycle. Official Trek Bicycle Recall Notice.
This recall affects disc-brake equipped bikes only.
If you suspect you have one of the affected bicycles please bring it into The Bike Lane for a free inspection. We will replace recalled skewers with a new one and you will receive a $20 coupon toward any Bontrager product.
Trek has determined bicycle models that could be affected and list them below. However, this list may not be exhaustive, and consumers sometimes change the componentry on their bicycles.
