⚠️ Riziko

The product poses a risk of injuries because the rear shock absorber is inadequately welded to the shock absorber’s lower mounting boss. Because of this, the welding may crack due to vibrations and knocks during operation. If the rider continues to use the vehicle with the cracked rear shock absorber, the mounting boss will break off and the rider's seat will sag, resulting in loss of control.
