If you own a Specialized bike with a Future Shock, listen up. Specialized just announced a voluntary safety recall which affects the Roubaix, Ruby, Diverge & Sirrus, and includes bikes from the 2017 to 2019 model years.

Apparently, the steerer tube collar on some of these bikes may crack as a result of “stress corrosion”. Due to the unique design of the Future Shock, cracks in the steerer collar may result in loss of steering control while riding.



Above is a chart of the affected models by year. If your bike is included, you should stop riding it and head to your local Specialized dealer. There they will replace the collar with a revised design which also has a different torque value to prevent issues in the future. The full recall in conjunction with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) will be announced soon.
