"Shimano's Extensive Crank Recall Sends Shockwaves Through Electric Bike Industry"

TL;DR Summary
Trek has announced a recall of all Allant+ 7 models with Tektro brakes due to a risk of brake hose malfunction. The issue arises from the rear brake hose being routed around the headlight, which can cause damage and result in a loss of rear brake function. Owners can have the headlight mount and rear brake cable replaced at a local Trek dealer, and will receive a $10 credit. This is the latest in a series of electric bike recalls, including those from Lectric eBikes and Rad Power Bikes.
