Open Cycles has issued a recall and voluntary safety exchange on bikes and framesets fitted with a Campagnolo hydraulic rear brake hose. This is due to a risk posed by the Open 'Multistop' frame cable entry port damaging the rear brake hose and potentially leading to a failure of the rear brake. Open says even if your bike appears to be fine you should stop using it and contact them to organise a free repair.
The models affected are the: Open UP Ekar, UPPER Ekar, WIDE Ekar and MIND Ekar bicycles. As well as all Open framesets that use a Campagnolo hydraulic rear brake hose. The framesets in question were sold in matte black, bluey, grey, orange or custom colour. The model name of the frame can be found on the top tube close to the seat tube.
