Hospital admission Made Sep 22, 2011, sent to the company Nov 29, 2011, published by CPSC Dec 13, 2011
The product, in the report: Easton Bell Sports Bike Tire 26 Inches
The consumer wanted to report that he purchased 2 bike tires from a retailer and stated that he has had the tires slide from under him on two occasions. The first incident happened two months ago. The consumer was riding on the sidewalk to the street and the tire slid out from under him. The consumer was going at a very slow speed and did not come in contact with any unforeseen objects. The consumer fell on his left side landing on his ribs. The consumer did not go to the doctor but had to be in recovery for 4 weeks.
The consumer purchased the tire in June of 2011 (exact date unknown). On the second incident Tuesday September 20, 2011, the consumer was riding at a park on dry asphalt, rounding a bend at slow speed when the front tire went out from under him. The consumer fell directly forward and landed on his wrists and rolled on the ground. This time the consumer chose to go to the hospital September 21, 2011. The consumer severely sprained his left hand with possible ligament damage and may be scheduled for MRI’s.
The consumer had a sprain on the right wrist but still painful. The consumer cannot open beverage container because of his injuries. The consumer is very active and is going through depression because of his injury limitations. The consumer stayed at the hospital for 2 hours. The consumer was unable to drive himself to the hospital and someone had to transport him to the hospital both ways. The consumer had x-rays taken at the hospital and both his wrists.
The consumer was also given a splint for his left hand and placed a sports wrap on his right hand. The consumer was also prescribed pain killers. The consumer went Saint Vincent’s Hospital in Erie, PA. The consumer was told to follow up with a sports doctor and a visit has not yet been scheduled. His medical record number is [REDACTED]. The consumer spoke with the firm about the issue and was told that they would investigate the failure. The consumer called the retailer- the number was disconnected. The tires states that they are to be inflated at 40-60 pounds. The diameter of the tires are 26 inches. In both cases, the front tire failed and caused the fall.
The rear tire started to split down the middle- Bell sent a replacement in July, no questions asked.
Consumer is still unable to do push-ups. He’s very depressed about that- he used to do 100 a day, lift weights and body bag/speed bag workouts. He says this is killing him, he doesn’t know how he’s going to shovel snow this winter.

First aid Made Jun 20, 2011, published by CPSC Jul 13, 2011
The product, in the report: Easton EC90 seat post- OFFSET- Not the “Zero” that is on your recall list.
I was riding my Jamis Eclipse bike that came new with an Eason EC90 offset seat post , when I heard a pop and my bike seat fell off. After getting up injured, I looked at the seat to find that the bolt that holds on the seat had SNAPPED! I realize the Easton EC90 Zero seat post has been recalled , but not for the bolt. ( The clamp fails). I called Easton and they will send another / replacement bolt. I asked if they were made in China. They said , yes, either China or Thaiwan. I will find a grade 8 bolt made in the US to replace the broken one with. I don’t like dragging my flesh on road cinders!. I also asked Easton who pays to have my rear wheel fixed, and they said they don’t pay for damage done during a crash.
