What it is

Tongyang Cycling is recalling Basecamp Bike Helmets. The helmets were sold online at Amazon.com from July 2024 through July 2026 for about $34. About 315 were sold.

The hazard

The helmets violate the mandatory safety standard for bicycle helmets because they do not comply with the impact attenuation, positional stability and certification requirements. The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to head injury. In addition, the helmets have a button cell battery that does not bear the warning labels required by Reese's Law. If button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns, and death.
