  1. Emergency room

    Made Mar 29, 2023, sent to the company Apr 3, 2023, published by CPSC Apr 17, 2023

    The product, in the report: Children’s 16” Hyper Motobike

    The pedals on my son’s 16” Hyper Motobike cracked within two months of having it with hardly any wear except to the pedals. The ring supporting the top and bottom of the pedal is not closed in, and the plastic is thin. The pedal compressed and caused his foot to slip, which caused him to lose control and fall. When he fell, his hand got pinned in the spinning plastic that was busted and it caused a 3” laceration on his finger down to the bone. The spinning pedal rotated his PIP joint in his finger 180 degrees, requiring surgery to the fracture, with pins, 6 weeks in a cast, and 8 months of physical therapy. The plastic is thin and compromised due to the open ring edge of the pedal. Most bikes have this ring closed in to keep the pedal from compressing and breaking. The plastic when cracked is very sharp and dangerous. Walmart and Hyper are aware of this, yet have continued to sell this bike for a year and half since my son’s injury.

    The product, in the report: Kids 12 inch bicycle

    (02/09/2022) The consumer stated that her three year old son was riding the bicycle when his left foot slipped down between the frame and the pedal and became stuck. The consumer tried to pull his foot out but had to cut the pedal off of the frame in order to get the child’s foot out. There was swelling in the foot area where the consumer was trying to get her son’s foot dislodged.

    No medical attention was required.

    The consumer contacted the firm to see if they had heard of similar incidents. She was advised that nothing like that had happened before and offered to send the consumer a new crank and pedal. The consumer also sent photos to the firm.
