WASHINGTON (BRAIN) — Revelate Designs is working with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to recall about 1,250 Terrapin System 14L seat bags. The company has discovered that the straps that fasten the bag to the bike seat can detach and get entangled in the rear wheel of the bike, posing crash and injury hazards to the rider.
According to the CPSC, Revelate has received one report of the bag becoming unfastened and entangled in the rear wheel. No injuries have been reported.
Consumers are being told to stop using the bag and contact Revelate Designs for repair instructions. The company can be reached toll-free at 833-732-8224 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, email at info@revelatedesigns.com or online at revelatedesigns.com.
The bags being recalled have a pair of straps with hooks on the top rear of the bag and four red loops which the hooks connect to. The bags have Revelate Design logos on the left and right sides and were sold in black, blue, purple and camouflage. The nylon bags measure about 18 inches by 7 inches.
The bags were sold at REI stores, bike shops and online at revelatedesigns.com from December 2018 through April 2019 for about $160. They were manufactured in the U.S.
