IKEA has been informed and advised by a well-established component supplier to recall all SLADDA bicycles, due to safety issues with the drive belt. The drive belt can suddenly snap, which in turn can lead to falls.
For this reason, IKEA is recalling all SLADDA bicycles. IKEA has received eleven reports of such incidents, with two minor injuries consisting of bruises and scratches.
