Hi Everyone,
Over the past 2 weeks it came to our attention that one of our new
Control Bar’s failed in normal use. We immediately began to load-test
all bars that we had in stock at our factory in Vietnam and researched
into this issue.
We discovered that there is a problem with a batch of bars from our
BAR supplier in China (the leading bar factory supplying over 80% of all
Brands bars) that we have been working with without problem for over
four years.
It is apparent that we received a faulty batch of our new Control Bar
that were sold with our 08 Snowkite Models that were launched in
September 2007.
Our Design Team have visited the factory this week and the problem is
resolved. On top of that our factory now load test every single bar that
enters or leaves our factory to ensure this serious issue never surfaces
again.
To ensure the safety of our customers or any rider with a Frenzy FX,
Manta II or Access XC models with the new bar we are issuing a PRODUCT
RECALL.
The RECALL only applies to the new bar as shown in the photos and
official recall notice. Please click on this link to download the
official
OFFICIAL CONTROL BAR RECALL NOTICE
Any owners of this bar must comply with this product recall for their
safety. Our sincere apologies to our customers for this serious
inconvenience that is only affecting less than 1% of the total bars
sold. When it comes to safety there can be no Compromise.
Ozone will test all bars and replace free of charge those found to be
faulty and pay for any shipping costs incurred. Please contact your
Country Distributor (Importer) to arrange shipping the bar back to them
ASAP
Procedure for the CONTROL BAR RECALL >>
Contact your local Dealer (where you purchased your Ozone Kite or in
Canada, contact Muller Windsports Ltd
fly@mullerwindsports.com
Once again our apologies for this fault in the bars, we are
addressing this issue with our full attention to ensure the safety of
anyone using our kites. Our thanks in advance for your help in getting
the word of this out to any Ozone kiters you may know that may have one
of the above models.
We would like to state again that this is a limited problem that has
only affected a small batch of Snowkite Bars and does not affect any
other Ozone Kite.
We have implemented a strict load testing of every single bar we
receive from our supplier to ensure this never happens again.
Best Regards
Matt Taggart & All the Ozone Team
