2What is the risk?

The agency's statement is shown without a site-authored severity score.

The helmets in the recalled sets violate the mandatory safety standard for bicycle helmets because the helmets do not comply with the impact attenuation, retention system, positional stability, labeling and certification requirements. The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to head injury.

3What should I do?

Only instructions associated with this recall event qualify as an action.

Consumers should stop using the helmets immediately and contact 5Color for a full refund of the set. Consumers will be asked to destroy the recalled helmet by cutting the straps and email a photo of the destroyed helmet to [email protected]. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled helmet. Consumers may keep the protection pads.

Recall contact: 5Color toll free at 833-382-6461 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. CT Monday through Friday or email at [email protected].
