Review the current return and refund policy, including applicable time limits, product conditions, and any exclusions.

02 / PREPARE

Understanding Your Purchase

A Thoughtful Return Experience

Cycling accessories come in many different forms. A helmet has different fit considerations from a bike-mounted bag, while electronic accessories and bicycle components may have their own installation or compatibility requirements.

Because products vary, the information needed to assess a return or exchange can vary as well. Keeping the original packaging, product accessories, and purchase documentation can make it easier to explain your request.

If something is incorrect, damaged, or unsuitable, providing clear information early helps our team understand the situation and explain the available options.
