Consumer Description

I BELIEVE THAT THERE MAY BE POOR VIBRATIONAL DESIGN OR QUALITY CONTROL FOR THE LEFT FOOT SHIFTER LINKAGE THAT CONNECTS TO THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS GOING UPHILL AND NOTICED THE BIKE LOSE SPEED WHEN SHIFTING TO 4TH AND 5TH GEAR. AFTER A COUPLE OF HILLS, AS I WAS GOING DOWNHILL THE SHIFTER WOULD NOT DOWNSHIFT. I PULLED OVER AND SAW THAT THE BOLT WAS ALMOST OUT OF THE SHIFTER LINKAGE AND THAT THE FASTENERS WERE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. POSSIBLY POORLY TORQUED OR NOT ENOUGH VIBRATIONAL PROTECTION. HAPPENED AROUND 70 MILES ON BIKE. BIKE IS BEING TRANSPORTED TO SHOP TOMORROW
