The product, in the report: Trek kids 60 Mountain trek bike for kids 5-7
My 6 year old child has a TREK 60 Mountain bike. It has a 20 inch frame. The bike is an older model 2006. I had the bike in for service at the the local Trek store at 10129 Perimeter Parkway, Charlotte NC 28216 on October 5, 11, to have a new tube put on a tire. While being serviced I mentioned to the technician that the the handle bars move from one position to another, it is designed to be adjustable, and if there was any way of just locking the bars on one setting. The technician attempted to “lock” the bar in but said it would not lock. He said that the pin was “faulty” and would not lock a rod to keep it from rotating. The technician said that this is, “A DESIGN FLAW ON THE BIKE”. The technician attempted to tighten the pin and we took the bike home. On October 06, 11, when my son attempted to ride the bike he hit a bump and the handle bars became completely loose and slid forward causing him to fly over the handle bars on the bike and land on the ground. He suffered minor scrapes and bruises. I went back to the store on October 8, 11 and the service technician informed me that the pin was no longer in the rod so there was nothing to hold the handle bars in place and stop them from rotating front and back. I was told by the technician that it was a design flaw and he recommended replacing the entire handle bar. I was informed that consumers can no longer purchase the original model of handle bar or pin on the bicycle.
I understand that the bike is no longer under warranty but as the bike is intended for use by children and if this mechanism is a design flaw and causes a danger of serious injury or harm to children then Trek should have repaired this flaw in their kids bikes.
