Around 20,000 Trek e-bikes have been recalled over fears that they could break when properly torqued.

The recall affects 19,890 Trek FX+ 1 and Electra Townie Go! e-bikes manufactured by Hyena of Taiwan and sold in the US. Customers have been asked by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to stop riding and contact an authorised dealer to get their bike fixed. Bikes sold in Europe have not been included in the recall.
