CINELLI BIKES WARRANTY

• Cinelli bicycle frames and forks - covered for 5 years from the date of purchase.
• Original Cinelli brand component parts - covered for 2 years from the date of purchase.
• Original Cinelli Frame & Fork paint finish and decals - covered for 1 year from the date of purchase.
• All other component parts - covered exclusively by the stated warranty of their original manufacturer.

The warranty is conditional on your bike being operated under normal conditions and maintained in accordance with the maintenance schedule detailed in the section below.

If purchasing from an authorised retailer your bike or frameset will be inspected by a qualified mechanic before sale. A professional bike mechanic should also inspect your bike or frame between 0 and 3 months of purchase, and again every year or every 2500km, whichever comes first.

If you purchase a bike directly from us you should follow the instructions given in the quick start guide before your first ride. If you are unsure in any way about setting up your bike, you should take your bike to your local professional mechanic. Any issues resulting from failure to set the bike up correctly could result in your warranty being deemed invalid.

The above warranty, or any implied warranty, does not cover:

• Normal wear and tear on parts such as tyres, chains, brakes, cables and gearwheels in situations where there are no assembly or material defects.
• Bicycles serviced by anyone other than a qualified cycle technician.
• Modifications from the original specification.
• Use of the bicycle for abnormal, competition and/or commercial activities or for purposes other than those for which the bicycle was designed.
• Damage caused by failing to follow the quick start guide, included with every bike purchased from us directly, or failing to seek advice from a professional bicycle mechanic if you are unsure about setting up your bike before your first ride.
• Paint finish and decal damage resulting from taking part in competitions, jumping, downhill and/or training for such activities or events or as a result of exposing the bike to, or riding the bike in, severe conditions or climates.
• If you purchase a RAW, ready-to-paint (RTP) Cinelli Frame or Fork, it should only be painted by a specialist Professional bicycle painter. Custom paint should be applied within 6 months of ownership/before use, whichever comes first. If you do not have your frame painted by a professional you will invalidate your 5 year frame & fork warranty.

We recommend keeping a copy of your purchase receipt. We will need to see this in the event of a warranty claim.

If you have your Cinelli frame or fork custom painted, you should always retain your receipt from your Professional Painter, as we would need to see it in the event of any warranty claim.
