Use of our Products

Use of HPC products to assemble an electric bike kit, OR use of pre-made electric bikes manufactured by Hi-Power Cycles, LLC MUST be ridden in accordance with all local and federal laws.  Systems above 750W that are capable of more than 20 MPH are NOT able to be legally ridden on streets according to federal laws in the United States and many other countries.  It is up to the end user to comply with all laws pertaining to the use of these high powered machines.  Misuse of our high powered kits or bikes can lead to serious injury or even death. User fully understands electric bike recreational riding is an inherently dangerous activity. By purchasing an HPC product the consumer promises to hold harmless Hi-Power Cycles, LLC (DBA "HPC") and its subsidiaries in the event of an accident and promises not to pursue legal recourse.  In the event a customer wishes to pursue legal action, he/she is obligated to fully cover all legal defense fees for Hi-Power Cycles, LLC. Customer is to fully understand that our most powerful systems (3000W or higher) are not designed to sustain top speeds for more than a short burst. Attempting to sustain top speeds for longer periods of time may result in the system’s temp sensor limiting power, as to protect the system from overheating.   It is inherently dangerous and beyond the scope of our manufacturing specifications to sustain top speeds for prolonged periods of time due to numerous variables outside of our control.  Please be sure to ride safely and within the scope of the law and ALWAYS wear a helmet.

      Storage Policy:

      For bikes that have been dropped off and left on site, or bikes that have been converted by HPC and are not picked up from our shop within two weeks of the agreed upon pick up date, HPC will charge a storage fee at the rate of $15/day unless previous arrangements have been made.

      Return Policy:

      Due to the high degree of customization for each individual customer, PLEASE BE AWARE THAT NO REFUNDS will be given on our bikes, kits, or custom USA made battery systems. 

      We hand build our USA made batteries to each individual bike, kit or standalone battery.  The battery building process takes between 2 to 6 weeks depending on the complexity of the battery being built. Due to custom components, allow up to 2-6 weeks before shipment of your order for standard bikes and kits. 

      The USA made HPC Revolution may take 4-12 weeks to ship due to custom carbon fiber and complex aluminum machine work. Bikes will be shipped only after they have been paid for in full.  For international shipments, be aware that there can be added delays if customs chooses to inspect your package(s).

      Non custom individual parts and accessories that have NOT been shipped may be refunded minus a 10% restocking fee which is simply what it costs us (interchange fee + insurance cost for each sale).   Custom parts and accessories not listed on the website will not be refunded. These items can be shipped to the customer with shipping costs being paid entirely by the end customer, or can be picked up locally at our place of business.  In the event of delays of 90 days or more past timelines quoted at the time of purchase (such as delays caused by supply chain issues or manufacturing delays) the customer will be eligible upon request for a full refund minus interchange transaction fee with no further re-stocking fees (i.e. 6 weeks + 90 days for standard bikes and kits, and 12 weeks + 90 days for more complex custom builds/pre-order bikes). 

      As an added service for our valued customers, HPC, at their discretion, may offer to sell a new or used HPC bike or kit on consignment!  For a new bike or kit that has NOT SHIPPED from our facility, HPC will actively market and attempt to sell the bike or kit. HPC will refund the sale price of the bike or kit -20% commission if and when it sells. Alternatively, if a customer has a bike or kit that has already been shipped from the HPC facility, we will do a thorough inspection of the bike or kit to make sure it is in sell-able condition.  If the bike or kit is deemed to be in sell-able condition, HPC will actively market and attempt to sell the bike or kit. HPC will refund the sale price of the bike or kit -25% commission if and when it sells.  If there are parts that need to be replaced that have physical damage or parts or electronics that are broken and are not covered under warranty, the price of these replacement items will be deducted from the sale price of the bike or kit in question. HPC offers no guarantee as to timelines for completing a consignment sale, but will actively work with the customer in regards to pricing strategies needed to facilitate an expedient sale.

      All consignment sales are final! Upon completion of a pre-owned/consignment ebike or kit, the customer who had the item on consignment will be paid out immediately, minus the predetermined commission amount (typically 25%). Due to this nature, there will be no refunds given once the item has been paid for and sold.

      Thank you for choosing Hi-Power Cycles!
