Warranty
Every one of our frames is rigorously tested, both in factory/workshop, to the trails! All our frames are tested and conform to ISO 4210 standards. Our frames will also undergo Quality Control checks in both factory and workshop, taking the utmost care before dispatch.
If the worst has happened and something has gone wrong with your frame, don't panic we have you covered! We provide 3 years of warranty on our frames from date of purchase against manufacturing defaults on brand new bicycle orders. A 1 year warranty is provided on any sample or ex-demo products that are made available for sale and have been sold through a registered FUSTLE dealership. This warranty only applies to the original purchaser. In order to receive your replacement we must first receive your damaged one for assessment.
