Consumer claims for warranty service should be made through the retail location where the product, or bicycle with Profile Design original equipment (OEM), was purchased. Retailers should then contact the authorized Profile Design distributor within their country to obtain an RA (return authorization) number before sending the product, along with a copy of the purchase receipt, to the distributor for review. Any postage, insurance, or shipping costs incurred in sending your product for service (in either direction) are your responsibility. Profile Design will not be responsible for products lost or damaged in shipping.

Profile Design Worldwide Two Year Limited Warranty

Profile Design, LLC (distributor) warrants to the original retail purchaser ("you") that the Profile Design product for which you received this warranty is free from defects in material and workmanship for (2) two years from the date of original retail purchase.

Warranty Limitations

This warranty is not transferable to a subsequent purchaser. Profile Design's sole obligation under this warranty is to either, at its discretion: (1) repair the claimed defect at no charge, (2) exchange the product with a product that is new or which is at least functionally equivalent to the original product, or (3) a credit amount, determined by Profile Design towards the purchase of a new product. Profile Design must be notified in writing of any claim under this warranty within 60 days of any claimed lack of conformity of the product.

The duration of any implied warranty or condition, of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or otherwise, on this product shall be limited to the duration of the express warranty set forth above. In no event shall Profile Design be liable for any loss, inconvenience or damage, whether direct, incidental, consequential or otherwise, resulting from breach of any express or implied warranty or condition, of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or otherwise with respect to this product, except as set forth herein. Some states or countries do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts and some do not allow exclusions or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. 

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which may vary, from location to location. This warranty will be interpreted pursuant to the laws of the United States. The original English language version/meaning of this warranty controls over all translations and Profile Design is not responsible for any errors in translation of this warranty or any product instructions.

No company or person (including employees or agents of Profile Design) are authorized to modify, enlarge or extend this warranty in any way or to make any other warranties, expressed or implied on behalf of Profile Design.  This warranty is not intended to confer any additional legal, jurisdictional or warranty rights to you other that those set forth herein or required by law. If any portion of this warranty is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such finding will not invalidate any other provision.

If your product packaging has a written warranty policy included that differs from the warranty policy posted at www.profile-design.com/pages/warranty, the warranty policy on our website is considered most current and will be controlling as of the time your warranty claim is made. It is the product retailers obligation to provide this warranty to you upon request. It is available at https://www.profile-design-eu.com/pages/warranty

Warranty Determination

Once received by Profile Design or Authorized Profile Design Warranty Center, the product will be inspected to determine if it is covered by the Profile Design warranty. You may be asked to fill out a warranty claim form before processing can be completed. If the product is not covered under warranty, all replacement, repair, and shipping costs are responsibility of the customer. By sending your product in for evaluation you agree that Profile Design cannot return unrepairable unwarranted products to you (without a signed release) if they are unsafe to use in their unrepaired/unrepairable condition.  Profile Design will make the final decision on whether or not shipping charges will be charged for the shipping of the replacement product. 

At no time may any retailer or distributor make representations of what is covered or not covered under this warranty without express written permission from Profile Design. Should a retailer or distributor replace product before consulting Profile Design, it is at the sole discretion of the retailer or distributor and they may not be reimbursed by Profile Design. When a product or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes property of the customer and the returned product becomes the property of Profile Design, which may destroy it.

Profile Design will make its warranty determination within 30 days after receipt of the product, proof of purchase and any other item or information required in this warranty.
