Reported risk: The interior alignment tabs of the bicycle's chainguard can be pushed against the chain causing it to derail, which poses a risk of injury to riders. The U.S. importer, Electra Bicycle Company, has received four reports in North America of the chainguard derailing the chain, including one report of minor cuts and abrasion from a fall. Electra and the Canadian distributor, Revolution Sports Supply Inc., are aware of two incidents in Canada involving a dropped chain attributable to the chainguard problem. These incidents did not result in injury to the rider. Health Canada has not received any reports of incidents or injuries to Canadians related to the use of these bicycles.
