Pirelli Tire of Rome, Ga., is recalling about 15,000 Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR bicycle tires sold in the U.S. and Canada.
The tire bead can unseat from the rim and lead to rapid air loss, resulting in loss of control and posing a fall hazard.
The firm has received one report of rapid air loss, resulting in a minor injury.
This recall involves Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR bicycle tires in the size 28-622.
The tires are black and have either yellow, white, red, or gold branding on the sidewalls.
A list of the model names and numbers, tire IDs and production date codes, which are on the sidewalls, may be found here.
The tires, manufactured in Italy, were sold at Competitive Cyclist, Trek and Angry Catfish stores nationwide from March through July 2023 for about $100.
