A man is using his new mountain bike which is a state of the art product. It has a specially developed metal frame which enhances the bike’s performance over rough terrain. However, due to metal corrosion in some of the screws, which was unforeseeable, the handle bar snaps in two when the man is using it. He breaks both wrists.

A. Yes, he can because the bike is defective.
B. Yes, he can because there has been a breach of the duty of care.
C. Yes, he can because his injuries are not too remote.
D. No, he cannot because the injuries were not foreseeable.
E. No, he cannot because damages for personal injuries are not awarded under the Consumer Protection Act.
A - Yes, he can because the bike is defective.
