Recommendations :

Cycling with electric assistance (VAE-EN15194) requires some precautions, compliance with the highway code and traffic rules. The fact of having an extra power with the electric assistance, should not incite you to commit imprudence or to transgress the laws. The cyclist is responsible for his driving. He assumes all the risks related to the use of his electric bike, the possible material accidents, or injuries that he can cause to himself or to third parties. As such, it is advisable to wear a helmet approved on and off road, to prevent head injuries.

Electric bike users must contact their insurance company to ensure the protection of the user and third parties during daily use, prevent damage related to theft. Your Woodee will surely be envious. A security level 15 padlock, or even a built-in GPS tracker, will deter thieves.

Your Woodee can venture off the beaten track. On forest roads and in natural areas, the rules and regulations apply to you and other users. It is always strictly forbidden to circulate in protected areas (dunes, nature reserves, some fragile coastal areas).

The rules of common sense also require speed and careful driving on all occasions, especially on shared roads (bike paths, forest, or mountain trails) and never drive in broad daylight in the summer, on a busy beach, or in bathing areas.

Like any mechanical machine, your Woodee is subject to stress and wear. Some parts or components may react differently to use. If the service life of a part has been exceeded, it may suddenly break and cause injury to the user. Any form of crack, scratch or color change in heavily stressed areas indicates that the service life of the component has been reached and needs to be replaced.

Usage tips:

- Always have a bike in good condition and clean.
- Never use your bike if you detect any problem.
- Wearing an approved helmet is strongly advised when using your bike.
- Follow assembly and adjustment instructions.
- Remember to run your hydraulic brake system.
- Do not put your bike upside down for assembling or various maintenance operations, you may damage the levers or meter, and damage the hydraulic brake system.

IF YOU FALL: If you fall with your bike, please check that no components are damaged. If so, replace it. If in doubt, have your bike checked by a professional.

PROPER USE: Improper use of your WOODEE may prematurely damage your bike, or even lead to the breakage of certain parts and therefore cause injury.

TRAFFIC SIGNS: You are required to respect the rules of the road and other users. You are therefore obliged to have the necessary safety features for the use of your electric bike on public roads. Refer to the law in force in your country for accessories to install.

Billing:

Invoicing is VAT included.

Payment options:

Upon receipt by check, bank transfer, credit card or cash.

Retention of Title:

Ownership of the goods will be transferred to the customer only after full payment of the price in principal and accessories. In the absence of payment after formal notice, the Seller may choose to take back the goods still in stock at the customer’s expense or demand the cancellation of the sale.

IT and freedom:

No – partial validation:

If one or more stipulations of these general conditions are held to be invalid or declared as such pursuant to a law, a regulation or following a final decision of a competent court, the other stipulations shall retain their full force and scope.
