All bicycles have the brand name "Specialized" on the lower front frame tube. The model name is on the top tube. Hazards: The brake component housed within the bicycle's carbon fork can disengage from the fork and allow the brake assembly to contact the wheel spokes while rotating, posing a fall hazard.
