Warranty service will be provided either by repairing the defective part or by supplying a replacement part, at our discretion. Replaced parts become our property.

Reporting warranty damage

To make a warranty claim, please send an e-mail to Dolas e Bike. The e-mail should contain the invoice number and the vehicle identification number (VIN) as well as a photo of the damaged part or product so that Dolas e Bike can check the warranty claim.

Dolas e Bike will process the case in a timely manner. If an assessment is not possible without examining the bike, a satisfactory solution will be found in consultation with the owner.

Before dispatching a replacement part, Dolas e Bike has the right to request the part or product concerned for assessment. According to the results of the assessment, Dolas e Bike will decide on the warranty service and the dispatch of the replacement part.
