riding with heavy loads, commercial activities, and other types of non-
standard use can dramatically shorten the useful life of the Foes Frame or
Fork. Any one or a combination of these factors and conditions may result in
an unpredictable failure of a Foes Frame or Fork that would not be covered
by warranty. ALL FOES FRAMES, FORKS, AND SHOCKS SHOULD BE
PERIODICALLY CHECKED BY A RETAIL OUTLET OR A FOES DEALER
for indicators of stress and/or potential failure, including cracks, deformation,
corrosion, paint peeling, dents, and any other indicators of potential prob-
lems. These are important safety checks, and may be very important to help
prevent accidents, bodily injury to the rider, and a shortened life of the Foes
frameset or fork. THIS IS AN INTEGRATED AND FINAL STATEMENT OF
THE FOES LIMITED WARRANTY. FOES DOES NOT AUTHORIZE OR
ALLOW ANYONE, INCLUDING FOES DEALERS OR RETAIL BICYCLE
OUTLETS, TO EXTEND ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, FOR FOES. NO OTHER REPRESENTATION, AND NO STATE-
MENT FROM ANYONE BUT FOES, INCLUDING A DEMONSTRATION OF
ANY KIND BY ANYONE SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING
THIS FRAME OR FORK. ALL OF THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO THE
ORIGINAL OWNER ARE STATED HEREIN. IT IS AGREED THAT FOES
LIABILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL BE NO GREATER
THAN THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE AND IN NO EVENT SHALL
FOES BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-
AGES.
All other remedies, obligations, liabilities, rights, or warranties, expressed or
implied, arising from law or otherwise including, but not limited to, any
claimed implied warranty of merchantability, any claimed implied warranty
arising from course of performance, course of dealing or usage of trade, and
any claimed implied warranty of fitness, are disclaimed by Foes and waived
by the original owner. Some states, jurisdictions, countries, and provinces
do not allow some or all of the limitations set herein or the exclusion or limita-
tion of incidental or consequential damages. If any provision is found
enforceable, only that provision shall be stricken and all others shall apply.
This limited warranty does not provide the original owner with certain legal
rights and recourse, and the original owner may possess other rights or
recourse, depending on the state, jurisdiction, country or province.
WARNING: BICYCLE RIDING MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR
HEALTH, AND EVEN FATAL! ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET AND PROPER
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.

Foes will repair or replace any part that is determined by Foes to be covered
by this warranty. This limited warranty is made ONLY to the original owner
and is not transferable. All claims must be made through an Authorized Foes
Dealer, and must be accompanied by the original bill of sale or proof of
purchase that identifies the bicycle frame by serial number. The original
owner is responsible for this and any and all labor and transportation charges
associated with the warrantied repair or replacement of parts, even if Foes
determines that it is under warranty.
If the warranty claim on your Foes frame is determined to be invalid, Foes
Racing will offer a replacement frame/swingarm/part of at least equal value at
a reduced price. This transaction will be offered only through an Authorized
Foes Dealer, and under the following conditions: the frame has been regis-
tered with Foes Racing; the Frame is the property of the original purchaser;
the owner provides a valid sales receipt. This crash replacement is only
available to the original owner, and, for a time period of three years from the
original purchase date. The replacement frame must be assembled by an
Authorized Foes Dealer to maintain the Foes warranty. All freight charges
associated with the crash replacement are the responsibility of the original
owner.
We cannot stress enough that building-up a pro-level frame is not an
endeavor recommended for home mechanics. Special tools and skills accu-
mulated over time are needed to accomplish this successfully, and your
dealer can answer 99% of all the questions related to the complete build of a
high-end frameset. Due to this fact, this manual covers only the most
elemental information.
Every Foes Frameset has a useful product life. The length of this product life
will vary with the construction and materials of the frame or fork, the mainte-
nance and care the frame and fork receives over its useful product life, and
the type and amount of use the frame or fork is subject to. Users in competi-
tive events, trick riding, jumping, ramp jumping, aggressive riding, riding on
severe terrain, riding in severe climate or weather, ...continued
