All suspension forks, rear shocks (if fitted) and components (other than those made by Orange) shall be covered by the stated warranty of their manufacturer.

This warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of a defective frame, fork or component part and is the sole remedy of the warranty.

This warranty applies only to a bicycle purchased from a retailer authorised by Orange Mountain Bikes Limited.

The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, improper assembly, maintenance or installation of parts and accessories not originally intended for, or compatible with the bicycle as sold. Specifically the fitting of suspension forks with travel longer than the recommended maximum, as shown in the table above will invalidate this warranty.

Orange Mountain Bikes reserve the right not to warranty bicycles, frames or components which in their opinion have been used for riding conditions outside the limits indicated for each model. These limits are shown on the Specific Technology Gizmo featured in the current Orange Mountain Bikes brochure and website. Your Orange dealer can provide clarification of these categories and the intended use for individual models, if required.

The warranty does not apply to damage or failure due to accident, abuse or neglect.

Orange Mountain Bikes Limited shall not be responsible for incidental or consequential damages.

Claims under this warranty are to be made through an authorised Orange dealer. The complete bicycle must be returned to Orange Mountain Bikes Limited via the authorised Orange dealer to allow inspection of all the components and parts. Proof of purchase is required and a warranty registration card (see opposite) must have been received by Orange Mountain Bikes Limited before warranty claims can be processed.

Please note that this warranty applies only to the original owner and is not transferable.
