ALL WARRANTY CLAIMS ON MERIDA BICYCLES MUST BE MADE THROUGH AN AUTHORISED MERIDA STOCKIST.

If the cause of the fault isn’t initially clear based on the information and photos your Merida stockists provides, the defective product may need to be returned to Merida Bicycles Ltd for closer inspection.

For warranty issues outside the UK and Ireland, please contact the relevant Merida distributor direct.

If a warranty claim is upheld and the identical frame isn’t available, Merida Bicycles Ltd reserve the right to provide an equivalent, current, frame in the colour available locally at the time of the claim.
Where no such frame is available, a higher level model may be offered with a surcharge for the upgrade.

Accidents can happen. Whilst a Merida carbon frame helps provide competitive advantage, the inherent material properties of carbon fibre can severely compromise the structural integrity of the frame when subjected to impact.

From the 2011 model year, Merida Bicycles Ltd offer the original owner of any Merida carbon frame a crash replacement carbon frame at 50% of the normal retail price in the event of an accident.

If you’ve sustained crash related damage to your Merida carbon frame, please return the frame with your original proof of purchase to an authorised Merida stockist for inspection.

If the damage is deemed to have compromised the integrity of the frame, an equivalent crash replacement frame will be offered at 50% of normal retail price.

• The Merida Carbon Crash Replacement offer is subject to stock availability
• If the equivalent current model bicycle frame is not available, alternatives will be offered
• The customer will be charged 50% of the frame’s RRP plus carriage costs, payment must be made prior to the frame being despatched, direct to Merida Bicycles Ltd
• The frame will be delivered to a local Merida stockist for assembly
• Any assembly costs should be negotiated directly between the dealer and the customer
