Liability Disclaimer

You are responsible for your own actions while using an electric bike.

We recommend contacting your insurance provider to determine if your current insurance policy would cover you in the event of an accident.

BIKE PERFORMANCE

Please note that information regarding the expected range on a single charge on one of our eBikes is an estimate, not a guarantee. There are many factors that contribute to actual, real-world range for an eBike battery such as age of the battery, temperature, level of assist, speed, payload, and terrain. Given the right conditions, it is possible to get less than the expected minimum range or greater than the expected maximum range.

PRE-ORDERS/BACKORDERS AND PRE-ORDER/BACKORDER CANCELLATIONS

For all pre-orders and backorders, your credit/debit card will be charged immediately. There will be no delay in payment collection, regardless of when the item is expected to ship. Pre-orders that are cancelled by a customer and not already shipped by DŌST Bikes will be 100% refundable. Pre-orders that are cancelled by a customer after shipment will be subject to a 10% processing fee.

A backorder essentially allows you to reserve an eBike that is currently out of stock. It functions the same as a normal purchase, except your eBike will be shipped at a later date as specified on the product page. Pre-orders are typically for completely new products that are not yet released. Our backorder process is for eBikes that have already been available, but are temporarily out of stock.
