* General notes on the statutory warranty
Warranty defines a time-limited obligation to rectify the defects / and to make a purchase exclusively for defects that already existed at the time of sale.
Within the warranty period of 24 months after acceptance, the buyer can claim existing defects of the bicycle.
In favour of the customer, it is generally assumed during the first 6 months of the warranty period that the goods were already defective at the time of delivery, unless the seller can prove that the defect did not exist at the time of delivery.
If the bicycle is claimed after the first 6 months, the burden of proof is reversed, i.e. the customer must prove that the item was already defective at the time of delivery.
