This expanded recall involves Specialized Sirrus X 3.0 and 4.0 bicycles model year 2021 and 2022. The prior recall involved 2019 and 2020 model year Sirrus, Sirrus X and Sirrus Sport bicycles.  “Sirrus” or “Sirrus X” is printed on the top tube of the bicycle and the model name (e.g. “3.0”) is written on the seatstay of the bicycle. The bicycles were sold in various colors. The crank arm can disengage and cause the bicycle’s rider to lose control, posing fall and injury hazards. Consumers should stop using the recalled bicycles immediately and contact their nearest authorized Specialized retailer for a free repair. Specialized Bicycle Components is contacting all known purchasers directly.
