- Components (Brakes, Gears, etc.): [1 year] limited warranty.
- Warranty coverage is for the original purchaser and requires proof of purchase. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. It does not cover wear and tear, damage from accidents, misuse, neglect, or unauthorized modifications. Full warranty terms are available on our Warranty Page.
Are the bikes assembled when they arrive, or do I need to put them together?
For safe shipping, our bikes arrive partially assembled (typically 85-90% complete). You'll need to attach the front wheel, handlebars, pedals, seat post, and perform some basic adjustments (brakes, gears). We include all necessary tools and clear, step-by-step assembly instructions. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, we recommend taking it to a local bike shop for professional assembly and tuning (costs vary by shop).
