Specialized recalls some 2004 Roubaix bikes

Specialized is working with the Consumer Product Safety Commission to recall some 2004-era Roubaix road bikes and some 2009 model year mountain bikes. The road bikes are being recalled because a riveted brake cable stop on the frame can come loose. The mountain bikes are being recalled because the handlebars can break. In both cases, the company and the CPSC are advising owners to stop riding the bikes immediately and return them to a Specialized dealer.

The Roubaix recall:

No longer a Hamilton fan

Editor: I supported Tyler Hamilton. I argued that he did not cheat and that he was unfairly found guilty. I was wrong.
