There were many documented failures on Tern's website.... until all that information was public, then required login credentials, then it was removed from search engines, and then it was deleted.

They claimed the frames are super safe, however a simple statistical test would contradict their hypothesis.

They filed a frivolous lawsuit against me for speaking the truth.

Their recalls don't define the recalled bikes. The serial numbers should be public....I can't imagine a legitimate reason to keep recalled serial numbers private.

It seems these frames are still breaking, even new bikes....this non-sense started in 2012, and I don't think it will end anytime soon.

Can others please chime in with other details.

Thanks
Yan
