Norco Performance Bikes of British Columbia, Canada has announced a recall of 2007 and 2008 Team DH, Aline Park, Aline, Atomik, Shore 1,2,3 Atomik models because the bicycle frames may crack while in use and lead to an injury. Norco is asking all riders to stop using bicycles with these frames and to contact a Norco dealer or Norco directly about a replacement frame.

A bicycle frame that may crack and separate is a very serious defect. A defective or damaged bicycle that causes an injury to a rider may be the basis for a product liability claim. If you have been injured while riding a bicycle, please contact Michael Keating at 312-208-7702 or MKeating@KeatingLegal.com.
