3. Insofar as specific product conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs apply mutatis mutandis.

1. If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made subject to conditions, this will be expressly stated in the offer.

The description is sufficiently detailed to allow a proper assessment of the offer by the consumer. If FOCUS Bikes uses images, these are a true representation of the products, services and/or digital content offered. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer are not binding on FOCUS Bikes.

2. In some cases (e.g. due to delivery problems by suppliers), the specifications of the product may deviate from the specifications stated in the offer (i.e. on the FOCUS Bikes website).

3. The warranty conditions as included in the warranty booklet supplied with the product apply to the products and the distance contract.

4. Claims under the warranty must be submitted - while presenting the product for inspection - via one of the FOCUS Service Partners. At the same time, the original purchase receipt, as well as the original warranty certificate supplied with the product, must be handed over to the FOCUS Service Partner.
