  1. Seen by a doctor or nurse

    Made Jul 5, 2019, sent to the company Jul 23, 2019, published by CPSC Aug 13, 2019

    The product, in the report: MicroKickboard PedalFlow; purchased August 2016; white; seatless-bike with 1-gear

    The critical bolt holding the stem/handlebar piece to the front fork/frame of the MicroKickboard PedalFlow bike failed — sheared in half — causing an accident.

    The PedalFlow an “L” shape, more akin to a scooter than a bicycle in appearance. It is a collapsible, with a hand-crank-turning mechanism connected to a 3/8” bolt (which allows “T” to pivot”). When tight, a metal mesh (for fold or upright) keeps the “T” in position. The entire connection of the “T” to the fork/frame relies on the single 3/8” bolt.

    I was biking on a dedicated bike path along a flat section going ~10-15mph. My wheels hit a small bump in the road. The “T” steering/handlebar came off immediately when the bolt sheared; With no way to steer or balance, I immediately crashed onto the bar and ground and hit my head.

    The PedalFlow came apart into two major pieces, with the bolt sheered off completely.

    To be clear, the bolt that sheered is the one connected to the hand-crank-bolt mechanism marked 3002 in this picture: https://www.microkickboard.com/replacement-parts/micro-pedalflow-parts
