What this means for you

The skewer, which connects the Coho XC Cargo Trailer to the bicycle, can shear or bend. This can cause instability of the trailer and the towing bicycle and pose a fall hazard for the bicycle rider.

What you should do

  1. 1 Stop using Ballz QR Skewers right away.
  2. 2 Set it aside where it won't be used by mistake.
  3. 3 Contact Burley Design LLC to arrange your replace. See the official notice below for contact details.
  4. 4 Keep the product until your remedy is fully processed. You may need it.
Official remedy (Replace): Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Ballz QR Skewers and contact Burley to receive instructions on how to dispose of the skewer and to receive a free replacement skewer.
