Recall Details
This recall involves the Momentum Vida E+ E-bike. The bicycles come in metallic red, pearl white, metallic navy blue, metallic green, indigo blue, happy mint (light green) and panther (black). The bicycle comes in two frame configurations (mid-step and low-step) and both configurations come in small, medium and large sizes. The unique serial number for each bike is stamped into the frame on the outer side of the left rear dropout and on a printed sticker under the bike's downtube. “Momentum” is written on the downtube of the bicycle and “Vida E+" is written on the top tube.
To determine whether a Momentum Vida E+ bicycle is included in this recall, consumers should look at the third character of the bike’s serial number. Bikes with a serial number in which the third character is “H”, “J” or “K” are included in this recall and must have their forks replaced free of charge. Bikes with a serial number in which the third character is “G” require additional visual inspection by an authorized Giant Bicycle dealer to determine fork status.
The firm has received four reports of broken fork steerer tubes. No injuries have been reported.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
