Otherwise, the claim of warranty rights will not be granted unless there are proven reasons.

By assembling and / or using any component of SABFOIL products, the customer declares to have read and understood the terms and limitations of this warranty, accepting the following:

  1. The warranty of SABFOIL products is valid for 24 months from the date of purchase.

  4. SABFOIL products are tested by specialized personnel and professional riders, and are to be considered safe for use and compliant with extreme activities if used in the correct way.

A direct inspection of the product considered defective by SABFOIL or an official SABFOIL distributor / shop may also be required.
