Reason for Recall / Hazard
The frames should have 2 welds connecting the down tube and head tube. Recalled frames only have one, making the connection weaker. If the weld becomes damaged, the headtube may separate from the frame.

If the weld becomes damaged, the headtube may separate from the frame.
