British folding bike brand Brompton has issued a recall notice on its G Line gravel bikes; based on a report of a hinge spindle failing, it will swap the part on all existing bikes. Customers are being notified directly by the brand from today.
The affected part is the spindle in the primary front hinge that enables the main frame tube to fold. Brompton says that it has identified that corrosion is the cause of the failure and will be swapping out the original spindle with a more durable version.
