WARRANTY INFORMATION FOR YOUR E-BIKE
Please keep your receipt safe as proof of purchase.
The bike has a lifetime warranty that covers its structural components (frame, handlebar and stem, and saddle-pillar) and a 2 year
warranty for wear parts.
The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper use, non-compliance with safety precautions, accidents, or incorrect or
commercial use of the bike.
The bike is intended for personal and non-professional use only.
This warranty does not cover damage resulting from repairs carried out by persons not authorised by Decathlon.
All electronic components are securely sealed. Opening any of these components (Battery, battery casing, controller, screen, motor)
may result in physical injury or damage to the system. Opening or modifying a system component will void the bike warranty. The
warranty does not cover cracked or broken screens displaying obvious signs of impact.

Our B’twin bikes are designed to provide total user satisfaction.
This is why B’twin wants to commit to providing high-quality, hard-wearing bikes.
As such, B’twin is offering its customers a life-time warranty valid only for the following parts (excluding carbon frames): frames, rigid
forks (forks without suspension), handlebars and stems used on B’twin brand bikes. This warranty comes into effect on the day of
purchase of your B’twin bike(s).
It should be noted that for this lifetime warranty to remain valid, the purchaser must:
either have a DECATHLON loyalty card and register his purchase at the checkout desk,
or complete the warranty certificate available on line on www.supportdecathlon.com within a month of purchase. When registering, the
purchaser must provide the following information: surname, first name, date of purchase, email address and bike serial number.
Under this warranty, B’twin undertakes to replace the frame, rigid fork, handlebar and stem with an equivalent part, or repair it within a
reasonable period of time after inspection at a DECATHLON store workshop. It should be noted that costs of transport and travel are
the responsibility of the customer.
However, this contractual obligation will not apply in the event of poor maintenance or improper use of B’twin bikes as set out in the
relevant product instruction manual.
To be able to claim under the warranty for one of the parts listed above, simply visit a DECATHLON store workshop and present your
DECATHLON loyalty card or your warranty certificate.
B’twin reserves the right to check that all the lifetime warranty terms and conditions have been met and to take all the necessary
measures to verify this.
