Delta Cycle Corp. is recalling about 3,500 Picasso Two-Bike Folding Racks. The bike racks do not have sufficient hardware to support their weight on the wall. This can cause the bike rack to unexpectedly fall, hitting those nearby.
This recall involves Picasso bike racks with a collapsible shelf. The bike rack can be mounted on the wall and has slots to support two bicycles. The metal rack has the Delta logo and name printed on the front of the rack.
The racks were sold at LL Bean, Bike Nashbar and independent bike shops nationwide from January 2002 through September 2005 for about $40.
Consumers should contact Delta Cycle immediately to receive additional hardware and installation instructions.
