Voluntary Recall - Cycling Gloves

01/15/2008

VOLUNTARY RECALL
PRO and SHIMANO Cycling Gloves

It has recently come to Shimano’s attention that, contrary to its strict contractual specifications, certain PRO, DURA-ACE and XTR cycling gloves manufactured by Shimano’s supplier in Pakistan contain traces of Benzidine.

As a precaution, Shimano has voluntarily decided to recall all PRO and certain DURA-ACE and XTR cycling gloves which carry a label indicating they were made in Pakistan, or which carry no label at all.
Cycling gloves that carry a label indicating they were manufactured elsewhere are not affected by this recall. The label is located on the inside of the gloves.

If you have a pair of gloves affected by this recall, or if you are unsure, you should stop using the gloves immediately. Please visit your bicycle dealer to get details on how to obtain a replacement pair of Shimano gloves.

Affected models offered in Australia: Avenger, Spring, Summit, XTR and Dura-Ace.
