SRAM is recalling Zipp 88 front hubs sold between October 2008 and December 2010. This comes after two reports of collapsed front wheels that resulted in injury due to a failure at the front hub’s flange ring. This recall affects an approximate 12,000 units.
Those affected feature a silver alloy hub shell. The outside flange ring is gray in the standard option and blue, gold, gray, pink or red in the ZedTech options. The diameter of the two clinch nuts is approximately 1 inch.

The first version of the 88 hub is the only one affected by the recall. The first version has the Z logo on the flange ring. The other versions – not affected by this recall – do not have the Z logo on the flange ring.
Certain types of complete bikes from Specialized, Giant, Felt, Orbea and Cannondale were sold with ZIpp wheels with these hubs. A listing of these brands and their model types can be viewed here.
