Warranty

1. How to apply for warranty

LANKELEISI warranty claims can be fulfilled by submitting mail (please tell us your order order number), which is required to replace parts under warranty. This is done through the contact page on our website and requires your order number. Support tickets allow direct contact with our certified mechanics via email. After submitting a ticket, you will receive a response within 48 hours. As part of the warranty process, you may be required to perform tests and send footage to a mechanic so they can diagnose the problem and provide the best solution. An example of this would be testing a battery with a voltmeter and submitting a picture of the result via email. LANKELEISI will assess your case and guide you through any testing we may require.

A) What will we do?

If a component is deemed defective or damaged without user error, we will issue a replacement part. We will replace any parts deemed damaged during shipping. We can also authorize reimbursement for repairs at local bike shops up to €200 if determined by a LANKELEISI mechanic. Any unauthorized repairs or alterations are not covered by the warranty. Any unauthorized alterations to the bike will also void the warranty.

B) What won't we do?

LANKELEISI will not replace any part without first seeing a photo or video of the damaged part. We will not provide warranty service for second vehicle owners. We will not replace any parts damaged by the user. We will not pay for any third-party service or part replacement unless agreed prior to repair.

We will not provide any warranty service for owners who have not purchased from LANKELEISI-BIKES.com or an authorized dealer.
