This Wednesday Yuba Bicycle announced a recall of nearly 1,000 of its Mundo cargo bicycles due to the potential risk of the rider getting their feet caught in the rear wheel.

These models were sold nationwide from May 2011 to December 2012 for around $1,099. The full name of the bicycle is the Mundo V4 cargo which has a 26-inch steel frame, wood utility deck on the rear rack, and aluminum fenders.

So far there have only been two incidents where bicyclists had their feet get caught; no injuries were sustained.
