Sanven Technology is recalling about 1,950 Vevor 20-inch and 24-inch BMX bicycles (models SS24001 and SS24002) that the CPSC says lack a chain guard, so loose clothing can become caught in the chain drive. No incidents have been reported. Consumers should stop using the bikes and contact Sanven Technology for a free chain guard repair kit.
What happened
Sanven Technology Recalls Vevor BMX Bicycles Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Crash Hazard; Violate Federal Requirements for Bicycles. Units affected: About 1,950.
Affected products
This recall involves Vevor-branded 20-inch and 24-inch BMX bicycles, models SS24001 and SS24002. The model numbers are printed on the product packaging. The bicycles were sold in black. The Vevor logo is printed across the downtube of the frame on the bikes.
Sold at: Vevorstores nationwide and online at www.vevor.com from October 2024 through April 2026 for between $152 and $188.
The risk
The bicycles violate the mandatory safety regulation for bicycles, because they are not equipped with a chain guard. Loose clothing can get entrapped in the chain drive, posing a risk of serious injury or deadly crash hazard. In addition, the bicycles do not comply with the labeling requirements.
None reported.
What to do
Consumers should stop using the BMX bicycles immediately and contact Sanven Technology for a free repair kit. Consumers will be shipped free chain guards, with detailed installation tutorials and provided with after-sales support (such as customer service email) to help solve any issues arising during self-installation.

What you can doAI-generated
- ✓Stop riding the bike today. Park it until the chain guard is on, because loose pant legs or a jacket hem can get pulled into the chain drive and cause a serious crash.
- ✓Find the model number on the packaging. Look for SS24001 or SS24002 and check the Vevor logo across the downtube. If you bought one of these from a Vevor store or vevor.com between October 2024 and April 2026, this recall covers your bike.
- ✓Email recalling@vevor.com or go to vevor.com and click "Recall" at the top of the page. Ask for the free chain guard kit and the installation tutorial. Mention your model number so they can ship the right parts.
- ✓Install the guard before anyone in the house rides it again. Kids are the most likely riders of 20-inch and 24-inch BMX bikes, so don't let them get back on until the guard is bolted on. If the install stumps you, use the customer service email they list for help before you ride.
