Requirements breached
The product poses a risk of injuries because: - The bicycle has unprotected sharp edges, which may cause injuries during normal riding, handling and maintenance. - The cable caps do not withstand the required removal force; their removal could result in injury of a child. - The hand-operated brakes, the pivot of the plastic lever may break and the braking assembly may stop operating. - The handlebar grips do not have sufficiently enlarged and covered ends. -It is not equipped with a chain-guard that fully shields the chain, which might lead to constriction of a child's fingers while playing with the chain-guard. In addition, the manufacturer’s instructions do not contain all necessary safety warnings and the user´s manual is missing. The product does not comply with the relevant European Standard EN 14765.
