I was biking on the lorain county metro parks trail, called Steel MIll trail . I have been biking it for awhile now and I was finishing my ride off when my pedal on the right just came off, I fell off my bike scraping som places on my body. Cutting my knee and brusing it casuing it to become swolen. I came home and clean myslef up. This just happen about a hour ago so I’m still gona wait and see how it feels tomorrw. I have a few scraps on hands and arm but they should be ok. I did not know that the bike had a recall on it. I have been using it off and on for a few years. But this year I decided that I wanted to get back in better shape. Biking is fun.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(7/21/2011) Dynacraft BSC, Inc.: 2011070-6C882-2147477367
Dynacraft has reviewed the above numbered report and provides the following comment in response. The information contained in this comment is true and accurate to Dynacraft’s best knowledge, information and belief. [REDACTED] has been using a recalled bicycle for roughly eleven years, but cannot recall where or when she purchased the bicycle. At the time of the recall there was an in store retrofit program to replace the recalled front shock fork. If [REDACTED] does not know if her bike was retrofitted prior to her purchase she should not ride the bicycle. No loss of control was reported. She states that she was biking on a [REDACTED] metro parks trail, called [REDACTED] trail when her pedal on the right just came off. She has not made an injury claim and thus we assume she recovered from her accident. The bicycle shipped with a manual which in 1999 said on page 55:
Warning: Failure to perform the following checks could result in serious injury to yourself or others. . . . 4. PEDALS: Check pedal spindles, making sure they fit tightly against the crank arms. . . . GENERAL PRECAUTIONS 1. For safe operation, you must secure the pedal spindle tightly against the crank arm with a wrench that fits the shoulder of the pedal spindle.
These maintenance warnings are repeated on stickers on each crank arm. Pedals will back out while a rider is pedaling unless they are maintained tight. The warranty is in the manual and this bicycle is out of warranty and has been for over 8 years. In any event the pedals are attached to the crank arms of the bicycle by either the retail store that sold the bicycle or the consumer if the bicycle was bought in its shipping carton and not assembled prior to sale. Because the bicycle was safely used for over ten years, this incident appears to have been caused by the failure of the bike owner to maintain her bicycle and follow the maintenance warnings. Dynacraft requests that this comment be published in the Consumer Product Information Database, and hereby consents to such publication.
