  • I've got a Babboe two-wheeler (apparently their three-wheelers are OK) I bought second hand.

    Not sure what my next step should be - there's no official recall yet, they've just told people to stop using them. I doubt they'll do a repair to all of them and surely replacing them all would put them out of business.

    It's how the kids get to childcare two days a week so in the short term I don't really know what to do either.

  • I would start with thoroughly inspecting the frame for signs of fatigue and cracking. Its not as if every fame has failed. I would just start checking it often.

  • Yes it's a tough one for the end users. I wouln't expect much from the brand or the importers (the Danish distributor almost shrugged it off as a paperwork issue), but as @young_gun said you can always inspect it on a regular basis. If the main failure is the main tube cracking at box level , it should be preventable by welding a sleeve over it.
