Bontrager warranty for bike parts & accessories
The short version
Bontrager doesn't cover everything, but keeps carbon-rim wheels and parts and accessories covered for life. That full coverage is shorter than most of the 6 brands we compared, which typically cover 2 years in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Bontrager's published warranty, checked October 2026.
