3074.0. "Recall of Scott Suspension Fork" by PAR3::GLYNN (John) Mon Apr 29 1996 10:48

    For those with a Scott suspension fork, CPSC has announced 
    that Scott is recalling some of them.  To quote from the 
    press release:
    
    ---------------------------------------------------
         Scott USA has received 640 reports of incidents of
    these model forks cracking or separating, eight of which
    resulted in injuries. The injuries reported have included
    two concussions, two separated shoulders, one laceration,
    and three abrasion injuries, or "road rashes."
    
         The forks have the "SCOTT" logo on the side of each
    fork leg. A sticker on the front of each leg reads,
    "UNISHOCK" with the designation "S", "LF", "VR", "TX" or "R."
