DBINLINE Rear Shock
Description: This recall involves Cane Creek Cycling Components DBINLINE bicycle rear shock absorbers. The shocks are marked with graphics that incorrectly identify the adjustment directions for High Speed Rebound (HSR) damping. HSR on the shock is decreased by turning the adjuster counter-clockwise and increased by turning it clockwise. The incorrect graphics present the opposite; that is, the plus(+) and minus(-) symbols are switched. The consumer can be misled or confused when adjusting HSR on these shocks. The shocks come in black anodized aluminum with the words "INLINE" marked on the air can portion of the shock and are attached to a full-suspension mountain bike frame. Recalled products have a serial number on the underside of the top valve body in the following ranges: AA00002 - AA07304 and SA00077 - SA03926. The shocks were sold separately and were sold with the following mountain bikes: 2015 Alutech - Tofane 2015 Banshee - Phantom and Spitfire 2015 Bianchi - Methanol 29 2015 Canyon - Spectral 140 - 27.5 and 29; and Strive CF 2015 Ghost - AMR Riot 130 2015 Guerilla - Gravity Megatrail 2015 Ibis - Ripley 29 2015 Intense - Tracer, Carbine 29 and Spyder 29 Comp 2015 Knolly - Warden 2015 Nicolai - Helius 2015 Norco - Sight Carbon 7.1 2015 Nukeproof - Mega TR 2015 Orange - Five and Five 29 2015 Specialized - Enduro 650B and 29 [Learn More]
