Orbea issue recall for Avant H40, H50 and H45 1x

Orbea Recall, What You Need to Know

Orbea have issued a recall for several models of Avant bikes from MY2025 and MY2026, due to an issue with the carbon fork. Similar to the recent Cube recall, the forks were found to be prone to premature failure through cracking or separation during use. Affected bikes have been withdrawn from the market and end users should cease use immediately.
