2910.0. "Cannondale recall on frames..." by MIMS::OLSEN_R () Fri Feb 10 1995 18:23

    Perhaps I'm the only one that saw this, but a recent edition of the
    Atlanta Journal newspaper reported in an article that Cannondale and
    the Consumer Products Saftey commission have announced a recall of all
    cannondale frames. The article I read didn't say to send the bike back,
    just there there have been reports of few frames breaking, and that
    cannondale will accept any frame with cracks or fatigue and replace it
    with a new model.
    
    Anyone else see this?

    There was a bullet on this in the current velonews. The article stated
    that there is NOT a recall, but it was apparently just an attempt to
    notify the public of possible problems, and it you have a crack in your
    frame, don't ride it, call cannondale for replacement.
