What was wrong
Defect
Cycle Gear is recalling certain Street & Steel brand Big Bore model motorcycle helmets, sizes Extra Small and Small. The helmets were manufactured in December 2012.

Risk
In the event of a crash, the wearer may not be adequately protected, increasing the risk of injury.

Cycle Gear will notify owners and provide a replacement helmet or reimbursement. The recall began on September 23, 2013. Owners may contact Cycle Gear by calling 1-800-292-5343 or emailing customerservice@cyclegear.com.
