Some bike shop recently advertised on the radio about a recall from the 1990s? I have high doubts on that." Hey folks don't touch that dial, come down to Performance Bikes where 90s era recalls are our speciality, have a cheap crank that got caught up in the 90s recall-a-palooza and you decided to wait over 20 years to get around to it, you are just in luck, we are running special recall one and get the second one recalled too, Also stock up on our Kirk Precision frames"
I am sorry but I doubt someone would pay money to advertise for a 23 year old recall that nets them zero money and a lot of potential headaches trying to file claims for that. I am not saying a shop shouldn't help a customer I am saying they wouldn't waste time and money to advertise for something that out of date.
