14 | LIFETIME
The lifetime of the CORIMA wheels depends on the sports activities of each of our customers and the special conditions to
which the wheels were subjected. Under normal usage and servicing conditions, free of shocks or excessive stresses, our
wheels will preserve their mechanical characteristics for several years beyond the warranty’s contractual period. However, we
recommend to our customers to replace their wheels with new ones every 5 years.
Some components, such as bearings or spokes, are considered to be consumables for which the contractual warranty does
not apply. Trueing and spoke tension are not covered by the warranty.
If you feel that an element of your wheel shows signs of fatigue, you should immediately replace it.
Regarding the wearing status of the rims, have a check performed each season in our workshops to ensure the best possible
control. CORIMA will check the wearing status and will inform you of the reliability of your rims.
It is advisable to have your wheel checked by CORIMA each season. This check’s periodicity will depend on the product’s use
and we are at your disposal to advise you.
15 | WARRANTY
15-1 | THE CORIMA SALES WARRANTY
15-1-1 Warranty
The CORIMA Company warrants all its products against any defects in material and workmanship for a duration of two
(2) years
from the product’s billing date.
The repair periods covered by the sales warranty on the products will not extend the warranty’s duration unless the pro-
duct is immobilized more than seven (7) days. In the latter case, this downtime will be added to the warranty’s still
remaining term.
15-1-2 Warranty’s limitation
The CORIMA warranty covers exclusively the manufacturing defects of its products and excludes, notably, from its scope of
application any damage, prejudice and, more generally, any direct or indirect consequence which would result from bad use
or failure to respect user instructions, the lack of maintenance or a non-conforming use of the product.
To keep the warranty valid and for your safety do not modify or alter your wheel (such as by drilling, sanding etc...).
15-1-3 Warranty’s application
In order to have the CORIMA sales warranty apply, the buyer should return the product for examination to the CORIMA
Company at its headquarters’ postal address indicated on the letterhead of these sales conditions. The product must be
accompanied with its invoice. The CORIMA Company will then proceed to examine the product. Depending on the results
obtained, the following will be suggested:
- If the product has a manufacturing defect, CORIMA will decide either to repair or replace the product or a part of the pro-
duct in question.
- If the product does not have a manufacturing defect, CORIMA will suggest to the buyer to repair or replace the product at
the buyer’s expense.
Any return to CORIMA for examination will be handled by the customer who will ensure that the product’s packaging is
appropriate, that the product is insured, if necessary, and that the shipping costs are paid.
This sales warranty applies without prejudice to the legal guarantees, particularly the guarantee of conformity provided by
Article L.211-1 and subsequent articles of the French Consumer Code and the guarantee against latent defects provided for
by Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code.
