The risk

The product poses a serious risk of injuries since thread sealant may have been incorrectly applied to the Lefty Speed DLR2 and Speed Carbon SL damping cartridge threads. Incorrectly applied thread sealant can result in the damping cartridge loosening while riding. If the damping cartridge loosens, serious damage can occur to the fork, which can lead to an accident, with risk of serious injury or death.
