prOduCT LIFE CYCLE 
Every YETI frameset has a useful product life cycle.  The length of that useful product life 
cycle will vary depending on the construction and the materials of the frameset, maintenance 
and care the frameset receives , and the amount and type of use the frameset is subjected to 
over its life. YETI recommends that an authorized YETI dealer should inspect the  frame for 
stress  annually. Frame stress could cause potential failure and the signs are usually apparent 
in the form of cracks, fracture lines, deformation, dents, and any other visual indicators of 
abnormality. These safety checks for frame stress are important to prevent accidents, injury to 
the cyclist, and product failure of a YETI frameset.

dISCLaImEr 
YETI Cycles is not responsible for any damages to you or others arising from riding, 
transporting or other use of your bicycle. In the event that your frame breaks or malfunctions, 
YETI Cycles shall have no liability or obligation beyond the repair or replacement of your frame 
pursuant to the terms outlined in the warranty.

 
*if you have a warranty concern, please contact your authorized Yeti dealer.
