Pricing
At PowaRider we strive to keep our overheads low and pass the savings
to you. We closely monitor other retailers in order to maintain our
competitive pricing. We try to ensure that the prices on our web site
are correct. If an error is discovered in the price of the goods that
you have ordered we will contact you to let you know the correct price
and ask you whether you still wish us to fulfil your order at this price.
We shall be under no obligation to fulfil an order for a product which
was advertised at an incorrect price. We shall give you the option of
confirming the order at the correct price or if you so choose, to cancel
the order altogether. If you cancel and have already paid for the goods
in the circumstances described in this clause, we shall refund the full
amount in accordance with these Terms. If we are unable to contact you
we will treat the order as cancelled. We will do our best to correct
any pricing errors as quickly as practicable after being notified of
them.

We will contact you in the event of a problem with availability
of any goods. You may then wish to cancel the order or wait until the
item becomes available.
Marked Down Products
From time to time we may sell marked down products for any reason.
These products will be sold as described and you will need to read the
description for the warranty terms and condition. Our returns policy
still applies unless otherwise stated.
Orders & Specifications
The buyer shall be responsible to us for ensuring the accuracy of the
terms of any order (including any applicable specification) submitted
by them and for supplying any necessary information to us relating to
the goods within a sufficient time to enable us to perform the contract
in accordance with those terms. The quality, description and quantity
of and any specification for the goods shall be those set out by us
(if accepted by the buyer) or the buyers order (if accepted by us).
For any goods manufactured, the buyer shall indemnify us against all
claims, loss, damages and expenses incurred or for any infringement
of patent, copyright, design, trademark or other intellectual property
rights for which we may become liable by following the requirements
or specification supplied. We reserve the right to make any changes
to the specification of any goods, which are required to conform to
any statutory or safety requirements.

original condition (including all contents and packaging). Products requiring assembly (e.g. electric bicycles) must not have been assembled and all original protective packaging must not have been tampered with.

All returns must follow our simple returns process to ensure that we efficiently process your return.
Warranty
All our products are supplied with at least 12 months warranty from

do vary across our range with some major components (e.g. bike frames)
guaranteed for up to 5 years. Please check the warranty and guarantee
details for each product.
This warranty does not include general wear and tear or faults caused by incorrect assembly, misuse, neglect, accident, incorrect operation, unauthorised modification or sub-standard repair. This includes extensive rain damage and other weather damage. The warranty may be invalidated if the product is not kept indoors or undercover.

After the initial 8 working day period we reserve the right to send you either replacement parts (which we expect you to fit) or we may ask you to return the product to us or to our agents for either replacement or repair.
In all instances PowaRider Limited shall not be liable for incidental or consequential damages or expenses, including but not limited to lost profits or other economic or commercial losses. This warranty does not affect your statutory rights.
After the warranty period we recommend that repairs and fitting of replacement parts is performed by a qualified repairer.
