I have Ritchey WCS's on my new hill climbing bike that were affected because of this. Ritchey licensed the design from AM.

thanks SK,

I looked. the number I found starts with a WH, not an S. I'm not quite sure if I am looking in the right place. I'll send the info to my LBS to be sure.

Thanks for the heads up, my husband and I are just packing for vacation and I couldn't decide which bike to bring. This news makes the decision a lot easier. Again thanks, Jones

Wouldnt you know it? My son JUST replaced the hubs on his AC wheels and sure enough - they are the recalled ones!

THANKS!!!! We have already called for the replacements.

I'm actually kind of glad Yellow postponed her Monitor Pass ride. I could just see me stranded in the middle of the Sierras. I suppose I could swap wheels off my cross bike but they're heavy!!! Ok, less light weight. I'm such a weeny. . .
