PART II
(continued from previous page)
Terms of Limited Warranty
This limited warranty is not meant to suggest or imply
that the bicycle cannot be broken or will last forever.
This limited warranty applies only to the original owner
of a GT bicycle and is not transferable to subsequent
owners.
For any warranty claim to be considered, the bicycle
must be brought to an Authorized GT Dealer on the
same continent on which the bicycle was purchased.
The bicycle must be in an assembled condition and
accompanied by the original receipt for the bicycle.
This limited warranty is void if the bicycle is subjected to
abuse, neglect, improper repair, improper maintenance,
alteration, modication, an accident or other abnormal,
excessive or improper use.
This limited warranty applies only to bicycles purchased
in fully assembled and adjusted condition from Authorized
GT Dealer or other outlets specically authorised by GT
to distribute GT bicycles.
Damage resulting from normal wear and tear, including
the results of fatigue, is not covered. Fatigue damage is a
symptom of the frame being worn out through normal
use. It is one kind of normal wear and tear, and it is
the owner’s responsibility to inspect his/her bicycle. All
bicycles and frame sets should be periodically checked
by an Authorized GT Dealer for indications of potential
problems, inappropriate use and/or abuse.
Damage resulting from corrosion is not covered.
Damage resulting from improper assembly or
maintenance, or from installation of parts and accessories
not compatible with the GT bicycle, is not covered.
All labor charges for warranty service, including the
transfer of components and/or any installation of new
components, are the responsibility of the bicycle’s owner.
Due to product evolution and obsolescence, some
components may not be available for older models. In
these cases, sourcing and paying for components is the
responsibility of the bicycle owner.
If frame failure should occur due to faulty materials or
workmanship during the guarantee period, the frame or
component will be replaced with the same or most nearly
compatible frame or component then available.
If a frame is replaced under these provisions, the warranty
period applicable to this replacement expires at the expiry
date applicable to the original frame’s warranty time limit.
For frame replacement under the limited warranty, please
contact the Authorized GT Dealer from which the bicycle
was purchased and that Authorized GT Dealers will
contact us to initiate a warranty claim on your behalf.
Frames must be returned for inspection at the customer’s
expense and include a copy of the original and dated
purchasing receipt.
Please note: The fork is not part of the frame and
bushings and other pivot hardware on rear suspension
frames are not part of the frame.
Exclusions from Limited Warranty
The limited warranty does not cover paint damage, rust,
any modication made to the bicycle, normal wear and
tear, improper assembly or maintenance, installation of
parts or accessories not originally intended or compatible
with the bicycle as sold and costs of installation, assembly
and disassembly. The warranty does not apply to damage
or failure due to accident, abuse, misuse, neglect or theft.
Claims involving these issues will not be accepted.
Please retain and refer to your GT Bicycle Owners
Manual for other relevant information regarding your
bicycle.
Apart from the consumer guarantees referred to above
(which cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer
Law), these are the only warranties given by Monza
Imports Bicycle . Any warranty that might otherwise be
implied by law including, but not limited to, the implied
warranty of merchantability and the implied warranty of
tness for a particular purpose are limited strictly to the
applicable length of this limited warranty.
If you wish to make a claim under your consumer
guarantees or under the express warranties, you should
contact your original place of purchase or your nearest
Authorized GT Dealer with proof of purchase- eg receipt
details.
