Limited warranty

Limited warranty policy

      Trials riding puts a lot of abuse on bikes components comparatively to many other types of cycling disciplines. Although bike trials specific frames and parts are designed to sustain a great amount of stress from the riding, it's like anything else some parts eventually can break.

      Most frames and parts we offer are covered by the manufacturer's warranty against defects in the material or workmanship. From it purchased date at HBtrials, if a part or a product breaks within the warranty period of usually 1 year, less than a year for some items, if the part was installed properly and used as intended, it will therefore be replaced upon failure. It is to be clearly understood that the manufacturers' warranty doesn't cover parts or items affected by: abusive use, modifications, unsuitable installation or incorrect use therefore, each warranty case need to be reviewed and processed individually.  Please contact us if you think that a defective part or item should be reviewed under the manufacturer warranty program and we'll provide you with the necessary information on how to proceed.

      Some components are expected to wear out faster then others under normal usage. These components would therefore need to be adjusted or even replaced more often. There is no types of warranty for those components. This includes parts such as: brake pads, grips, tires, brake line or cable, inner tubes, bahsring/bashplates, chains and more.. More over, in most the cases, we will ask you for the defective item to be sent back to us for the purpose of its analysis according to the manufacturers warranty program. In some other cases, only a few detailed pictures will be enough to provide the information needed for the component analysis.  Unfortunately, we can't provide free shipping for any items sent back to us not more than for the replacement item that you would get if covered by the warranty program. We cover the shipping between the manufacturers and HBtrials, which is more expensive than shipping anything within Canada for example.  So this way, the client, HBtrials and the manufacture have all done their best to provide the best result replacing a malfunctioning component.

      Components replacement delays

      For all cases where an item wouldn't be in our inventory and for which we would have to place a new order directly from the manufacturer, depending on how far we are from our next importation preset date for that specific manufacturer, some delays may be expected. But we will always do our best to get you back on your bike as fast as possible.

      As we are always there to help you find the right part that will properly fit your bike at the first time, we don't experience many returns at HBtrials.  If you are not sure about which part to choose on our website, contact us and we'll help you out with the pick of the proper part or item that you need.  However, no matter what we all do, a mistake can always happen!  So, before returning an item, again, please contact us at priory and explain what your component problem might be, as it is often just a small fitting problem that can be solved easily. If we can't solved the issue, we would then ask you to proceed with the return of the product.
