It applies to purchases of the following products (“Products”) in the United States and is provided free of charge. All AIMA e-bikes and/or accessories are covered by the standard 2-year warranty.

This warranty does not affect these rights.
Before riding for the first time, read the manual that came with each product. They contain important safety information and information on assembly, use and maintenance. AIMA also recommends that you register at www.aimatech.us when purchasing an AIMA product.

This guide includes, but is not limited to, information contained in technical specifications, user manuals and service communications. "Original retail purchase" means the first purchase of a new product from an AIMA authorized retailer or directly from AIMA. Portions of warranty coverage may be transferred to subsequent owners as detailed below.

Subsequent owner condition

Authorized Retailer Returns
If you encounter any issues like product failure, damage, or defects due to transportation, production, or design, simply refer to your local dealer's return policy for assistance.
Terms of Warranty
To take advantage of this warranty, dated original retail proof of purchase must be presented to AIMA. Whether you are the original retail purchaser or a subsequent owner, proof of original retail purchase is required. In any case, AIMA reserves the right to limit the warranty service to the country of purchase of the product. During the warranty period, AIMA will repair the product or, at AIMA's option, replace it with the same or most similar product then available. This is because we do not keep stock forever, so we may not have exact replacement parts or exact colors. If a product requires replacement, it will need to be returned to AIMA before a replacement product can be provided, unless otherwise agreed in writing by AIMA. You will not be charged for shipping the product to AIMA or receiving any replacement product during the warranty process.

Wear and Tear

The same applies to scratches and other potential damage that normal use and exposure to the elements may cause to your bike's paint or graphics. Over time, your bike may make slight creaking or other noises while riding, which usually means it needs maintenance. Wear items are not covered by this warranty.

Bearings
Exterior Plastic Parts
Brake Pads
Brake Cables
Standard Parts

Chain
