Guarantee
Your FELT bike is guaranteed by the manufacturer for two (2) years against process-
ing and material defects (as of date of purchase to the initial original buyer). In the
event that the bike or one of its components shows any processing or material
defect within the guaranteed period, FELT will repair or replace the bike.
Guarantee claims for shock absorbers, suspension forks, SRAM or Shimano com-
ponents or other branded accessories will be processed not by FELT GmbH, but
by the component manufacturers’ national distributors. Your direct contact in any
case should be your FELT dealer, who will be pleased to assist you.
This guarantee only applies to claims made by the initial buyer, who must present
the purchase receipt, with date of purchase, dealer address, model and frame
number.
In addition, you may register with us online under www.feltbicycles.com.
Guarantee claims will only be accepted if
• the bicycle has been used for none other than its intended purpose;
• the bicycle has had an inspection during its first 500 km or the first six months
after purchase;
• the bicycle has been fitted with none other than original spare parts;
• the suspension systems have been serviced once a year by your FELT dealer.
In some countries you can obtain a longer guarantee period. Ask your
FELT dealer for the situation in your country.

The guarantee does not cover labour and transport costs, nor does it cover follow
up costs resulting from defects.
The guarantee does not apply to bikes that have been used in competition, for
jumping or which have been subjected to any other kind of overstress.
It does not cover damage resulting from wear, neglect (insufficient care and main-
tenance), accidents, overstress caused by overloading, incorrect mounting or
improper treatment or damage resulting from changes to the bicycle (e.g. mount-
ing or alteration of additional components).
Diligent compliance with the manufacturers’ mounting instructions and prescribed
maintenance intervals is crucial to a long service life and good durability of the
bicycle’s components. Failure to observe mounting instructions or maintenance
intervals renders the guarantee null and void. Please observe the tests described
in this manual as well as all instructions concerning the replacement of safety-rel-
evant components such as the handlebars etc.
Bicycles that are used on public roads must be equipped according to
the regulations of the respective country! This applies in particular to the
lighting.
