Title: Continental Tyres Recall Post by: braando on August 19, 2014, 01:37:44 AM Anyone in here like me, running Conti Tyres ? If so, you may be in for a pleasant suprise. I do remember some discussion on the forum about Conti's splitting some time back. http://m.recalls.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/1062240 (http://m.recalls.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/1062240) Brian W [coffee] Title: Re: Continental Tyres Recall Post by: techno on August 19, 2014, 01:56:18 AM I'm running the Road Attack 2. I just purchased a new rear but the recall only seems to effect the fronts which are 120/70/17.
My front tyre was imported from the US so may escape the recall. I'll have a look at the numbers in the daylight. Title: Re: Continental Tyres Recall Post by: PAUL M on August 19, 2014, 04:09:23 AM Brian you need your front tyre replced 5011
(ContiSportAttack 2 CP8B B5M4 4811 to 2614) no benefit though, your tyre still looks like new from lack of use Title: Re: Continental Tyres Recall Post by: FIFO on August 19, 2014, 11:08:26 PM http://m.recalls.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/1062240 (http://m.recalls.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/1062240)
What are the defects? In some tyres the tread and/or belt may separate, possibly resulting in loss of air pressure. What are the hazards? If the defect occurs, this may affect steering control, posing a potential crash hazard to the rider. :'( I'm running the Road Attack 2. I just purchased a new rear but the recall only seems to effect the fronts which are 120/70/17. I had near new set of Conti sport attack 2 fitted. :o And back in May, had the front split and deflated with rather disastrous results :-[ Wish BrianW would have bought this to my attention earlier. ???

He decided to check my tyre pressures, am running Conti Sport Rear was 34, about what i run Front, 18 psi, proves a point........... hmmmmmmmmm Title: Re: Continental Tyres Recall Post by: Scoober1103 on August 26, 2014, 03:46:22 PM For those with a front tyre falling within the recall have you been in contact with your tyre supplier? My tyre is within the recall but I have been advised there not replacing it with another Sport Attack 2 but instead a Road Attack 2 Evo!
