1. 4ZA LIMITED TWO (2) – YEAR WARRANTY
4ZA Components & wheels: Subject to the following limitations, terms and conditions, 4ZA Components & wheels are warranted by Belgian Cycling Factory|4ZA against manufacturing defects in materials and/or workmanship for two (2) years from purchase by the original owner if the Components and/or wheels are purchased from an authorized 4ZA dealer, the 4ZA web shop or 4ZA’s listed online sales channels.
This limited warranty is conditioned upon the bicycle being operated under normal conditions and use, and properly maintained.
2. ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
This Limited Warranty is made only to the original owner of this new 4ZA Component or Wheel (set) purchased from an authorized 4ZA dealer, the 4ZA web shop or 4ZA’s listed online sales channels and it shall remain in force only as long as the original owner retains ownership of the 4ZA Component. This Limited Warranty is not transferable.
In order to exercise your rights under this limited warranty, the Component or Wheel (set) must be presented to an authorized 4ZA dealer, together with a receipt, bill of sale or other appropriate written proof of purchase that identifies the Component or Wheel (set). Should this Component or Wheel(set) or any part be determined by Belgian Cycling Factory N.V|4ZA to be covered by this warranty, it will be repaired or replaced, at Belgian Cycling Factory N.V|4ZA’s sole option, which will be conclusive and binding. The original owner shall pay all labor charges connected with the repair or replacement of all parts. Under no circumstances does this limited warranty include the cost of travel or shipment to and from an authorized 4ZA dealer. Such costs, if any, shall be borne by the original owner.
​
This limited warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear, nor to claimed defects, malfunctions or failures that result from abuse, neglect, improper assembly, improper maintenance, alteration, collision, crash or misuse. 4ZA Components or Wheel (sets) have not been designed, engineered, distributed, manufactured, or retailed for uses in trick riding, ramp riding, jumping, aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain, riding in severe climates, riding with heavy loads, commercial activities, or any similar activities; such uses may damage the 4ZA Components or Wheel (set), can cause serious injury to the rider, and in all cases will void this warranty.
3. USEFUL PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE
Every 4ZA Component or Wheel (set) has a useful product life cycle. The length of that useful product life cycle will vary with the construction and materials of the component or wheel (set), the maintenance and care the component or wheel (set) receives over its useful product life cycle, and the type and amount of use the component or wheel (set) is subject to. Uses in competitive events, trick riding, ramp riding, jumping, aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain, riding in severe climates, riding with heavy loads, commercial activities and other types of non-standard use can dramatically shorten the useful product life cycle of a Ridley bicycle or frameset. Any one or a combination of these conditions may result in an unpredictable failure of a 4ZA component or wheel (set) that would not be covered by this warranty. ALL 4ZA COMPONENT OR WHEEL (SET) SHOULD BE PERIODICALLY CHECKED BY AN AUTHORIZED 4ZA DEALER, for indicators of stress and/or potential failure, including but not limited to cracks, deformation, corrosion, paint peeling, dents, and any other indicators of potential problems, inappropriate use, or abuse. These are important safety checks and very important to help prevent accidents, bodily injury to the rider and shortened useful product life cycle of a 4ZA Component or Wheel (set).
