6 Month Warranty against Breakage

If during the first 6 months after the purchase of your FBM frame it breaks, you will have the option of purchasing a replacement frame at a reduced price. Frames that have been intentionally damaged will not be covered.
Only available to the original owner with a proof of purchase.

• Call the FBM warranty department and notify them that you will be sending in your damaged frame. Then send your FBM frame along with your proof of purchase to the FBM warranty department. FBM will then contact you regarding your replacement and payment options.


Definitions:

• “Proof of purchase” - A copy of the original sales receipt, or a copy of a completely filled out warranty card if the original card and a copy of the original sales receipt was mailed back to FBM within 30 days of the original purchase. If you can’t find your warranty card or sales receipt, you will need to contact the retail dealer where you purchased the frame and get a copy of your original sales receipt.

• “Manufacturing Defect” – Examples are a crooked brake mount, a missing weld, or an improperly machined headtube. These and similar problems are all things that you can notice while inspecting and assembling your frame.


FBM frames are built in house, and handcrafted by the best. We stand proudly behind our products, but also realize that nothing lasts forever, especially with the level of riding these days. We suggest you choose a frame that is designed for the type of riding you'll be doing, and that you have fun every day.
Thanks from all of us at FBM for your support.
