Sports & Fitness Equipment
Sports equipment must protect users — not put them at risk. FOLOUP monitors items that fail structural tests, are falsely certified, or lack basic warnings.
Our database includes unsafe:
- Bicycle and e-bike helmets that fail impact tests
- Adjustable weights or benches that collapse under load
- Electric scooters and hoverboards with fire risks
- Resistance bands that snap or degrade quickly
- E-bike conversion kits sold without instructions
These products often enter the market through dropshippers or third-party marketplace sellers, with little oversight or post-sale responsibility.
