FSA has issued a recall of Gossamer Pro AGX+ modular cranksets manufactured in 2022. According to the recall notice, the crank arm spiders that support the chainrings may "wobble" on the crank/spider assembly.
The connection between the spider and the drive side crank consists of a press-fit assembly, which FSA says is held in place with adhesive. This interface has been found to be prone to failure on some Gossamer Pro AGX+ cranksets.
The FSA states that affected Gossamer Pro AGX+ cranksets should be discontinued if installed on a motorcycle, as they may become unstable when riding and pose a risk of causing crashes or minor injuries.
The Gossamer Pro AGX+ Modular is a popular subcompact gravel bike crankset available in 1x and 2x formats. They are sold separately, but are pre-installed on some gravel bikes.
The recall applies to all CK-6037 model cranksets with serial numbers beginning with B1, B2 or B3 manufactured during 2022.
The serial number is printed on the inside of the crank, near the pedal spindle hole.The Gossamer Pro AGX+ is sold individually to consumers, but is also installed on some complete bikes sold by manufacturers and bicycle dealers.
FSA has three other gravel bike cranksets that it recommends as suitable replacements and will ship these free of charge to affected consumers.
If you think your crankset may be affected by the recall, call or e-mail your local FSA service center at [email protected], recall-usa@fullspeedahead .com, [email protected]).
The recall reportedly affects more than 10,000 cranksets, which sounds like a lot, but is considerably less than the nearly 3 million Ultegra 11-speed cranksets recalled by Shimano last year.
