PRODUCT RECALL - DUBLIN ONYX HELMET

Michelle Geoghegan, Weatherbeeta/Horseland, Friday, 19 February 2010

The manufacturer of Dublin Onyx helmets wishes to voluntarily recall all Black or White basic Dublin Onyx helmets for inspection due to a possible manufacturing fault.

The outer shell is coming away from the foam inner mould due to insufficient gluing at point of manufacture. This problem affects only the basic Dublin Onyx Helmet in Black & White (item codes: 441218 – 441241) and does not affect Purple Onyx helmets, wick lined or leather harness versions.

The problem only affects stock made in China, not previous stock made in New Zealand. You can identify if your helmet was made in China by looking for the internal sewn in label with “Made in China” on the reverse side.
 
If you have purchased this item since 01 December 2009, please contact the store of purchase urgently to arrange inspection of your helmet.
 
Note to all gear check stewards - It is recommended that for any forthcoming events, stewards ask each rider to read the recall notice and confirm they have checked their helmet accordingly before competing.
