Does anyone have any information about frame failures in some eZee bikes a few years ago?
I have just discovered from reporting my frame number to Wai Won Ching that mine is one of the ones that should have been replaced by 50 Cycles, the distributors at that time, who did not honour their obligations, despite having been supplied with replacement frames; part of their big falling-out with eZee at the time. He said "You are advised not to use it, if you do you do so at your own risk."
I have not managed to glean any further details of what sort of failures took place, or what proportion, under what sort of circumstances and in what form a failure might occur, and whether there are any warning signs
Obviously I am not keen to ditch the bike as I love it (have just sold my other bike). It is at least four years old, I think; I have had it for a year and done 1500 miles on it, and have scrutinised it all over very closely.
How paranoid should I be?
