Similarly, scratches on the bicycle's paint or pattern, and other potential damage, can occur due to normal use and exposure to various environmental factors. Over time, your bicycle may also develop slight squeaking or other noises during riding, which usually indicates the need for maintenance. Parts that wear out during normal use are not covered under warranty.

These components include, but are not limited to: chain, rims, spokes, brake pads, inner tubes, outer tires, brake discs, grips, hubs, rubber moving parts, derailleurs, brake cables and conduits, stripped threads/bolts, drive gears, saddle, and tools. Maintenance and replacement of these components are the responsibility of the bicycle owner.
