The product, in the report: 1 1/8” quill bicycle stem specced on Alki 1 and Alki 2 bicycles
In 2021, I worked for Bingham Cyclery in Ogden, UT. We carried IZip bikes, a commuter brand held by Alta Cycling Group. We brought in IZIP Alki 1 and Alki 2 commuter bicycles, some of the only bikes available at the time. We sold one to an eight year-old and the next day, her father returned with the bike. She had crashed because the stem, the part that holds the handlebars, had turned relative to the front wheel, causing her to crash. I was worried, because I had torqued the stem to spec in front of the father as part of its final check before leaving the store. I checked a random bike of the same model and it did the same thing. I tried every single bike with the same stem and they all turned with minimal effort despite being torqued to spec. Maxing out the torque setting on our torque wrench did not fix the problem. I brought the problem to the management of both Bingham Cyclery and Alta and they brought in mechanics who confirmed my conclusions. They did not issue a recall, however. They asked me if it was possible that only my bikes were affected. I responded that the odds against that were phenomenal. I was never informed that I should replace the stems. I had pulled all of the bikes with the affected stems from our sales floor. Two weeks later, I was fired, ostensibly for poor sales performance, despite being one of the company’s most prolific salespeople in a time when we had no bikes to sell.
