Reported risk: These 2003 Rolf Prima Vigor and Elan wheels were sold in a front and rear wheel set. Only the rear wheel is affected. "Rolf Prima Vigor" or "Rolf Prima Elan" are written on the wheel rim. The wheel models have serial numbers between 03926 and 06586. The serial number is located on the rim, under the yellow rim tape and is not visible from the outside of the wheel. The tire, tube and rim strip must be removed. Hazards: The rear wheel freehub mechanism can malfunction, causing no resistance when pedaling. The bicycle rider could lose balance, fall and suffer injuries.
