3. Conclusion of Contract

The presentation of goods in the online shop does not constitute a binding offer, but merely represents an invitation to order. By clicking the “Submit order” button you are placing a legally binding order in relation to the products in the shopping cart. The arrival of the order is immediately confirmed after it has been placed, however, this confirmation does not yet constitute our acceptance of your order. The sales contract is concluded when we accept your order by sending an order confirmation via email or by delivering the goods within 2 days.

If after completion of the sales order it is discovered that a component from the bicycle you ordered does not meet the legal requirements for product safety or, in the case that new provisions have been put in place after the sales order is concluded, may no longer be traded, provided the regulations were not foreseeable at the completion of the sales order, we are permitted to install a component of equal quality and price from the same or equivalent manufacturer, which is only marginally different from the ordered component in terms of engineering and colour.

Products are only sold in typical household quantities.

4. Wording of Contract

We will save the wording of the contract and will send you the details of your order as well as our General Terms and Conditions by email. The details of your recent orders can be found in your customer account after login.

Besides, you can claim a reduction of the purchase price, withdrawal from the purchase agreement or compensation for damages instead of performance as well as replacement of your wasted costs in accordance with the statutory requirements. Exercising your right to a claim in the case of a defect shall be free of charge.

    Important note: If you have purchased a complete bike from us, you are obliged to return the entire bike to make a warranty claim, and not just the defective components. Only then can we check whether the legal requirements for a warranty claim have been met.

    11.2
    In addition, we provide extended guarantees or services for certain products. These guarantees or services are in addition to your statutory rights towards us as your contracting partner in the event of a defect.

    a. Crash Replacement Service for ROSE frames, ROSE forks and select ROSE wheels
    If your ROSE frame, ROSE fork or ROSE wheel is covered by our ROSE Crash Replacement Service (as indicated in its product description) and it gets damaged or broken in an accident, we will replace your ROSE frame, fork or wheel with the same or comparable model of our current product range for 50% of the sales price within six years from the date of purchase. The replacement of frames or forks can only occur in our facility, you are not entitled to be sent a new frame or a new fork. The cost of installing the new frame or the new fork must be paid by you. We charge depending on the time required an hourly rate of 90 EUR (Switzerland: 120 CHF). Of course, you will receive a quote from us before we complete the replacement. You are welcome to bring your bike to us personally for the replacement of the fork or frame or to repair broken wheel spokes. If this is not possible, you can send the bicycle or wheel to us at your own cost (we will pay the cost of pick-up by the transport carrier and then add it to your final invoice) by making an appointment using this link: https://www.rosebikes.com/services/service-themen/service-termin-buchen . We will invoice you for the cost of pick-up and return transportation together with the costs for installation. You can find the transportation costs (one-way) here: https://www.rosebikes.com/shipping. We are also happy to send you a new ROSE wheelset at your own cost. This service only covers damages that are not subject to additional insurance. In case of a replacement, we will replace your ROSE frame, fork, or wheelset with the same or the nearest model, if the original product is not available. In this case, you are not entitled to receive an original product or to get a replacement for non-longer compatible components. The ownership of replaced, defective components – especially of frames, forks and wheels – will be transferred to ROSE Bikes GmbH during the process of the Crash Replacement Service. We will properly dispose of replaced components, frames, forks and wheels at our own expense. The Crash Replacement Service can only be applied to the first owner of the bike and can’t be transferred.
    The service provider is ROSE Bikes GmbH, Schersweide 4, 46395 Bocholt.


    b. ROSE Recycling Guarantee

    At some point, even the best bike reaches the end of its life cycle. In order to ensure that recyclable materials are reused in an environmentally-friendly manner and that non-recyclable materials are disposed of properly, we work continuously and intensively with suitably qualified partners and service providers to optimise the environmental balance at this point. As soon as the life cycle of a ROSE bicycle ends, we take care of the professional disassembly and separation of all materials used. This means that recyclable materials are returned to the recycling loop or are disposed of properly. The disassembly and recycling are free of charge for you. You can return the bike to any Store or Touchpoint or send it back to us at your own expense. If you wish, we can arrange for the packed bike to be collected - just book the collection via our service appointment tool and we will only send you an invoice for the shipping costs. (https://www.rosebikes.com/shipping). During the disassembly and recycling guarantee process, the ownership of the bicycle being disposed will pass to ROSE Bikes GmbH. There is no entitlement to the return of individual components, to the use of specific service providers or to an itemised statement of disposal. Should the condition of the bike permit repair and further use in charitable or social projects, we reserve the right to fix up the bike and give it to such a project.
    The guarantor is ROSE Bikes GmbH, Schersweide 4, 46395 Bocholt.


    c. Manufacturer’s Guarantees and Commercial Guarantees

    All guarantees expressly specified are additional manufacturer’s guarantees or commercial guarantees. The type of guarantee is stated on the product page. Wear and improper use shall not be covered by these additional manufacturer’s guarantees or commercial guarantees (unless otherwise specified on the product page). In order to make a claim under guarantee, please send the defective product together with a proof of purchase and a description of the defect to: ROSE Bikes GmbH, 46393 Bocholt, Germany.

    Important note: If you have purchased a complete bike from us, you are obliged to return the entire bike to make a guarantee claim, and not just the defective components. Only then we can check whether the legal requirements for a guarantee claim are met.
