Trango has just done a recall on the #5 BigBro.

From Mal Daly of Trango, in this thread:  http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.html?topic_id=784685
Hi Gang,
Once again, the gear junkies over at rockclimbing.com have shown up the social butterflies on supertopo. Or is it that the ST gang is out climbing all the time?

Seriously, though, sharp-eyed rc.commer climberdaved spotted a potentially dangerous manufacturing defect in the #5 BigBro and we have decided to recall them. The inner tubes were not made to spec resulting in the angled end faces not being parallel. See the photo: 





Full details and return instructions can be found on the Trango home page or just click here: http://www.trango.com/recall.php

There is nothing more important to me that your safety so please take a careful look at any #5 'Bros you may have and return any that are in question.

Respectfully,
Mal
