Items which are not covered by the warranty:

-minor scratches, marks or imperfections which do not significantly impact the performance and safety of the product
-damage due to external causes, e.g. damage by negligent use, incorrect use and tampering with the battery pack, damage by traffic accidents and damage during any transportation, e.g. by couriers. If a product has been damaged during shipping please report it within 14 day of receiving and we will work with you on a solution.
-damage due to normal wear and tear and maintenance. Wear and tear items which are not covered include tyres, tubes, brakes, brake pads, wheel spokes, derailleur tuning, gear adjustments, bottom bracket tightening, handlebar adjustments.
-If the bike doesn’t reach top speed this is not covered by warranty and if the distance per charge is not as advertised this is also not covered by warranty as this is only an estimate. Batteries lose capacity naturally. The advertised Amp Hours of battery is the closest estimate only.
-poor maintenance and any modifications to the product or components
-noise, e.g. squeaking noise or vibration noise
-It is accepted by the purchasers that there may be variations between two identical models, for example that the speed on low, medium and high pedal assist varies or that the power output varies. We doe not guarantee that the performance of two identical models is exactly the same as there will be some natural variations.
- Warranty will be voided if the product is used commercially in any way.
