Warranty Q & A
Q. Why will Kian Hong Cycle not service my aftermarket fork
that does not come with the warranty sticker?
A. All aftermarket FOX FORX distributed by Kian Hong
Cycle are identified by a grey warranty sticker (see above). The
warranty of these forks is fully supported by Kian Hong Cycle
and the claims are free during the warranty period. Kian Hong
Cycle is not obliged to service aftermarket forks without the
stickers as the forks originated from other grey market sources.
|
Q. How do I make sure
that a fork is aftermarket?
A. All aftermarket forks should come with a box,
owner’s manual, pump or spare springs.
In addition, the bottom of the
steerer tube should be engraved with the markings
“XXXXX-XXXXX-X-AM” instead of “XXXXX-XXXXX-X-OE ONLY”. Most
importantly, make sure it comes with warranty stickers on
the steerer tube and the rear right leg when making a
purchase. |

 |
Q. What should I do when making a warranty claim?
A. When making a warranty claim, obtain and complete a
copy of the FOX Service Form
[PDF 118kb]. Send in the fork together with the service form
and the original purchase receipt directly to us or via the bike
shop where the fork is purchased (the latter recommended for
overseas customers). The repaired fork will be returned to you
via the bike shop for the latter option.
Q. What costs are my responsibility during the warranty
period?
A. The customer is responsible for all costs of
maintenance services, non-warranty repairs, accident and
collision damages, oil, seals, bushings and reducers, and
mounting hardware.
Q. What are some examples of “abnormal” strain, neglect
or abuse?
A. These terms are general and overlap each other in
areas. Specific examples are: hucking, ghost riding, big drop,
stunt/ dare-devil riding, riding with broken parts, riding
without oil in fork, wrong spring rate, etc.
Q. Does the warranty cover incidental cost such as
shipping or transportation?
A. No. The warranty is limited to repair of materials
and/or workmanship.
Q. May I perform any or all the recommended maintenance
shown in the owner’s manual?
A. You may perform seal and suspension fluid maintenance
as well as bushing and drop-out inspections. If bushing or
drop-outs are worn, they should be replaced by an authorized
Service Center.
Q. May I perform service and repairs on my fork?
A. FOX FORX are mostly end user serviceable. Oil and
travel changes and damper or spring replacement can be performed
by the consumer. To ensure peak performance, extensive repairs
and service to the fork should be performed by an authorized
Service Center. If in doubt as to whether or not you are capable
of fixing your fork, kindly contact Kian Hong Cycle.
