In order to use a Zygg ebike you must agree to this Liability Policy concerning theft/damage by submitting the form at the end.

Please read this carefully. It outlines your responsibility, liability and the protocols to ensure the safety of the Zygg ebike. This forms part of your agreement with Zygg, as of February 1, 2023.

As a Zygg rider, you must:

  1. Always lock the e-bike securely to an immovable object (bike rack, lamp post etc.), using all of the lock(s) provided by Zygg. (E-bikes equipped with a frame lock that goes through the rear wheel must always be used in conjunction with a chain lock, never only one of them).

  2. Park and lock the e-bike overnight in a secure, dry, indoor location.

  3. Never leave the e-bike overnight on the street, front porch or backyard or other unsecured area. You must have secure, indoor overnight parking, Leaving an e-bike parked outside overnight voids any Theft Protection.

  4. Remove the battery when  leaving the e-bike locked

  5. Reporting to Zygg within 24 hours if your ebike was stolen,  if any of the keys for your e bike’s lock or battery have been lost or stolen, or if you have been in an accident or crash.

  6. TREAT THE E-BIKE AS IF IT WERE YOUR OWN. Excessive wear-and-tear, damage, scratches, crash or accident damage,  bent wheels or other damaged components, lost components, etc.. are all indicators of usage that is not “normal” and will result in fees and/or fines as per the Fees and Charges List.

  3. If you are unable to provide this photo, which shows the ebike securely locked at the location and time immediately prior to the theft, you will be required to take responsibility for the FULL PRICE OF THE EBIKE (and battery, if also missing).
