The bicycles were sold in 27 colors. Consumers can determine if their bicycle is part of the recall if "Sirrus" or "Sirrus X" is written on the top tube and the model name (e.g. "3.0") is written on the seatstay of the bicycle.

The bikes were sold at Authorized Specialized retailers nationwide and online from September 2018 through June 2020 for between $850 and $1,700.
