By Associated Press About 1,200 Raleigh Cadent bicycles with Carbonage carbon forks, manufactured by Carbonage Technology in China have been recalled.

Manufacturers say the forks on the bike can break during use, causing the rider to lose control, fall and suffer injuries. Raleigh America has received three reports of forks breaking, resulting in injuries, including a dislocated shoulder, a concussion and a broken jaw.

The recall includes the 2007 Raleigh Cadent 1.0, Cadent 2.0 and Cadent Carbon bicycle models with carbon forks.
