All accessories should be removed and carried inside the vehicle.

Please refer to the Product Page to find the exact mileage per model. If you frequently ride at full power (lots of hills, large, heavy loads), you can expect to be on the lower end of your model's range. Generally speaking, it depends on how much power you use from the motor.

If you want to go on extra-long rides, we recommend purchasing a second/spare battery so you can swap it out for the ride home!

We recommend using a Kryptonite lock, available on our Accessories page, to secure your bike whenever it is parked. As our trusted security partner, Kryptonite offers an Anti-Theft Protection Offer on select locks. If your registered lock is defeated by being opened or forced open and your bike is stolen, you may be eligible for reimbursement under Kryptonite's terms and conditions.

When leaving your bike unattended, we also recommend removing the battery and engaging the parking brake. While the parking brake is not an anti-theft feature, it helps keep the bike stable and prevents it from rolling while parked.

Shipping

Bikes being shipped in the continental United States have a shipping fee of $199. If you live in a limited-access area (an island that requires a ferry, for example), there may be an additional shipping charge allocated with your order. Please contact our Team directly about international shipping, as this may be subject to customs, taxes, and import fees, as well as the regulatory documents required by your country.

In-stock items are typically shipped within 4-10 business days of order placement. Shipping times will vary depending on the distance from the shipping origin. 

*Special circumstances such as high volume, new product releases, or restock days may create longer processing times. If this is the case, we will clearly state on the product page.

Once your items have been prepared for shipping, you will receive an email notification with a tracking number and a link to the freight website.

Warranty

Every Ferla Family Cargo Bike is backed by a one-year limited manufacturer's warranty for the original owner, covering manufacturing defects in the frame and electrical components. If a manufacturing defect is confirmed, we will repair or replace the defective part at our discretion.

Please note that our products are handcrafted, and minor cosmetic imperfections are a natural part of the manufacturing process and are not considered defects. The warranty is non-transferable and does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, accidental damage, labor costs, or shipping associated with warranty repairs.

We pride ourselves on making sure each customer is properly taken care of. Any damaged components covered under warranty will be replaced at no cost. We will be happy to assist you in replacing any defective part.

Items that are classified as consumables (parts designed to wear out over time) are not covered under warranty. Parts such as tires, tubes, brake pads, chains, batteries, spokes, are classified as consumables. We do carry all of these parts in-house, so you can purchase them directly from us if anything happens!

To be eligible, the bike must be shipped back in its original condition using the original shipping crate and packaging, and the customer is responsible for the return shipping costs.
