Product recall: Specialized 2D helmets

Road Bike Rider reported two months ago that there was a problem with this helmet when Specialized asked us to withhold a review. Now a recall is official, affecting at least some of the 3,000 2D helmets produced (in China). The helmets fail safety testing, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. They were sold for about $200 between July 2007 and October 2007 for men and women in black, white, silver, blue, pink and team colors. "2D" is printed on the sides. If you have one of these helmets, stop riding in it and return it to a Specialized dealer for a replacement or refund.
