This Limited Warranty (“Warranty”) is issued by Zen Electric Bikes Inc. (“Zen”). It applies to the products listed below purchased in the U.S. or Canada (the “Product(s)”) and is provided at no extra charge. Your rights under this Warranty are in addition to and separate from your legal rights as a purchaser of the Product, which may vary by state in the United States. This Warranty does not affect these rights.

Important Information

Before your first ride, please read the manual(s) provided with each Product. They contain important safety information and guidelines about assembly, use, and maintenance. We also recommend registering your Zen bicycle upon purchase at [registration URL]. While registration is not required to take advantage of this Warranty, it will allow Zen to provide you with better service in the future.

Determining whether damage or defect to an e-bike or covered component is protected by this limited warranty shall be in the sole discretion of Zen.

Warranty Coverage

Zen warrants the Products for a limited time from the date of original retail purchase against defects in materials and workmanship when used normally in accordance with Zen’s published guidelines. These guidelines include, but are not limited to, information contained in technical specifications, user manuals, and service communications. “Original retail purchase” means the Product was purchased new for the first time from an Authorized Zen Dealer or directly from Zen. Partial warranty coverage can be transferred to subsequent owners, as detailed below.
