RENTAL POLICY

We agree to provide all customers with rental equipment that is in working order. If any equipment is hired to customers with a minor fault or defect, we will point this out and note on documentation, so you are not held responsible on return. If you believe you have been provided substandard equipment you must inform us immediately to ensure you are not held responsible for the imperfection.

You also agree not to lend the equipment hired from us to any third party during the rental period. We agree to lend equipment to you – our customer – for your sole use only.

When you rent equipment from us, you are subject to these guidelines. If any equipment is damaged as a result of misuse and disregard for these processes, you will be charged full repair and/or replacement costs of the goods damaged directly.

EXCESS POLICY

When you rent equipment through us, Visa or Mastercard credit card details must be supplied (card number, name as it appears on card, expiry date and CSV code).

Excess is held in the form of a credit card pre-authorisation and no charges are applied to the card unless additional charges need to be passed on to you directly.

The full excess payable is NZ$2500 if the bike is damaged beyond repair, lost or stolen. You can choose to buy down the excess to a more manageable NZ$500 by paying an extra NZ$5 per person, per booking, per day.

Confirmation of Cancellation
