2. Registration Process

2.1. An Applicant Customer may apply for a Subscription via the Web Portal. A Contract comes into effect once the Applicant Customer has submitted an application via the Web Portal (and accepted these General Conditions) and once Rybit has accepted the Applicant Customer as a Customer. These General Conditions apply to all Subscriptions and form part of every Contract between a Customer and Rybit.

2.2. Rybit reserves the right to refuse an Applicant Customer if:

2.2.1. the Applicant Customer has had a previous Subscription terminated by Rybit;

2.2.2. Rybit has some other reason for believing that the Applicant Customer will not comply with the terms of the Subscription, the Contract, and/or these General Conditions; or

2.2.3. the Applicant Customer does not live within a radius of 60 miles from a Rybit Brand Store.

2.3. Before Rybit will supply the Bicycle to the Customer, the Customer must:

2.3.1. have paid the amounts to Rybit which are due under the Contract;

2.3.2. have supplied Rybit with a payment authorization via the Web Portal (credit card or bank transfer) for payment of the Monthly Fee, the Key Fee and any other sums payable under the Contract and/or these General Conditions, which method of payment must have been verified and accepted by Rybit in writing; and

2.3.3. at the time of collecting the Bicycle from a Rybit Brand Store prove their identity by means of a valid form of ID.

3. Bicycle

3.1. For the duration of the Subscription, Rybit will supply to the Customer a Bicycle of the agreed type and model. Unless Rybit decides to replace the Bicycle, the Customer will have the use of the same Bicycle for the duration of the Subscription. The Bicycle will remain at all times the property of Rybit.

3.2. For the duration of the Subscription, Rybit will carry out maintenance and repairs on the Bicycle (parts and labor) insofar as such work is required as a result of normal wear and tear through normal use. The Customer is required to pay for those repairs in line with the Protection the Customer elects. For the purpose of maintenance and repair work, whether or not instigated by Rybit, the Customer must transport the Bicycle to and from a Rybit Brand Store or (at their own expense) arrange for such transportation. This obligation applies throughout the duration of the Subscription, even in the event of a large or larger distance between the Customer and the nearest Rybit Brand Store occurring as a result, for example, of a new address of the Customer or the closure/relocation of a Rybit Brand Store. Rybit shall be entitled (but not required) to repair damage to the Bicycle caused by circumstances for which the Customer is liable at the expense of the Customer.

3.3. If available, Rybit will provide Customer with an alternative Bicycle for the duration of the repairs or maintenance to the Customer's Bicycle. Depending on the repair, Rybit will swap the Bicycle for Customer for a Bicycle of similar make, model and condition.

3.4. Work carried out on the Bicycle by the Customer or a third party is at the expense of the Customer, unless Rybit has confirmed in advance in writing that it will be responsible for such costs. Any damage to the bicycle caused by unauthorized repairs will be charged to the Customer.

3.5. Rybit is entitled to take back the Bicycle at any time in consultation with the Customer and replace it with a comparable Bicycle.

4. Key, Transfer of Key

4.1 The Key is strictly personal and may be used only by the Customer. Except by transfer of the Key in accordance with the provisions of this Article 4, the Customer is not permitted to share the Key with any third party or to enable any third party to use the Bicycle.

4.2 During the registration process, the Customer will create a password that will provide them with access to the confidential information and functions within the Web Portal. The Customer undertakes to treat the login data in the strictest confidence and shall ensure it remains inaccessible to any third party.

4.3 The Customer must update the personal and payment data it has supplied to Rybit as soon as possible following any change in such data via the Web Portal.

4.4 The Customer may transfer the Key (and thus the exclusive right to use the Bicycle) to an Applicant Customer, provided that the Applicant Customer has first accepted these General Conditions and has been accepted by Rybit as a Customer. As a result of such a transfer, the legal obligations of the Customer to Rybit arising under the Subscription are transferred to the new Customer by means of an assignment of contract. The Key gives such Applicant Customer the exclusive right to use the Bicycle. In the case of a transfer of the Key in accordance with this Article 4, the start date of the Subscription of the new Customer is the date on which the Key is supplied to the person who has been assigned the Key. The Customer may offer the Key to an Applicant Customer in any way permitted by law, but transfer of the Key must be effected via the Web Portal.

4.5 Rybit has no control over the willingness of an Applicant Customer to accept transfer of the Customer’s Key or any payment that the Applicant Customer may be prepared to pay for such transfer. Rybit does not guarantee that there will at any time be any Applicant Customer wishing to accept transfer of the Customer’s Key.

4.6 It is the sole responsibility of the person who transfers the Key, and not Rybit, to actually supply the Bicycle to the Applicant Customer who has accepted transfer of the Key. The transfer of the Key is a transaction between the Customer that transfers the Key and the Applicant Customer who accepts transfer of the Key. Rybit is not a party to this transaction and the right of cancellation specified in Article 11 does not apply to this transaction.

4.7 These General Conditions also apply to the party that is assigned a Key from an existing Customer and to the Contract with such party.

4.8 Rybit is entitled to refuse to cooperate with the transfer of the Key and assignment of Contract referred to in section 4 of this article 4 if there are compelling reasons. Such a compelling reason would include, for example, a situation in which the Customer wishing to transfer the Key is in breach of their obligations to Rybit.

5. General obligations and prohibitions

5.1. The Customer must:

5.1.1. act with the required duty of care and treat the Bicycle with care, in accordance with the instructions given by Rybit and with local traffic laws and regulations;

6. Theft, Embezzlement, Actual Loss, Total Loss

6.1. The Customer must safeguard the Bicycle against theft, embezzlement, and actual loss by enabling the alarm of the Bicycle (if fitted to the Bicycle) and keeping the Bicycle locked using as a minimum (depending on type) the ring lock supplied with the Bicycle or the rear-wheel lock integrated within the Bicycle and use the chain lock purchased by Customer.

6.2. In the event of theft, embezzlement, or actual loss, the Customer must notify Rybit accordingly by e-mail or via the Web Portal immediately, and in any event within 24 hours of discovery, and report the matter to the police. The Customer must return to a Rybit Brand Store all original keys to the Bicycle supplied to the Customer.

6.3. On receipt by Rybit of a report of theft, embezzlement, or actual loss of a Bicycle, together with a copy of the police report, Rybit will try to find the Bicycle. If Rybit fails to return the Bicycle to the Customer within two weeks of receipt of the report, Rybit will replace the Bicycle by one that is to the extent possible of equal value unless any of the situations described in section 6.6 of this article arises.

6.4. If the Bicycle is a total write-off or so badly damaged that the repair costs would exceed the amount of the actual value of the Bicycle, this is referred to as ‘Total Loss’. In the event of Total Loss, the Customer must notify Rybit immediately by e-mail or via the Web Portal , and in any event within 24 hours of discovery, and Rybit will replace the Bicycle by one of equal value to the extent possible, unless any of the events described in section 6.6 of this article has occurred.

6.5. Until such time as the Bicycle is returned to the Customer following its theft, embezzlement or actual loss, or the Customer receives a replacement Bicycle from Rybit, the Customer may rent an alternative bicycle provided there is one available. The Customer must collect the Bicycle (once it has been recovered), the replacement bicycle, and/or a rented bicycle from, and return them to the nearest Rybit Brand Store. For each occasion of theft, whether or not Rybit succeeds in recovering the Bicycle, Rybit will charge the Customer an admin fee. In addition, if the Bicycle cannot be recovered, Rybit will charge the Customer a deductible based on the model and the Protection of the Customer as mentioned in the order. If the bicycle can be recovered but is in need of repair, which is not covered by warranty, Rybit will charge the Customer for the cost of the repair up to a deductible based on the model and the Protection of the Customer as mentioned in the order.

6.6. Rybit will not replace the Bicycle, and the Customer is liable to make a payment to Rybit (i.e. the remaining Monthly Fee – up to a maximum of 12 months – and the amount mentioned in article 6.5) upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events:

6.6.1. the Customer’s second occurrence of a theft, embezzlement, actual loss and/or Total Loss;

6.6.2. the theft, embezzlement, actual loss and/or Total Loss is the result of their own fault, deliberate act, recklessness (whether or not intentional), and/or deliberate intent of the Customer. This would be the case if, for example, the Customer has not locked the Bicycle sufficiently or at all, has not used the Bicycle’s alarm, or not otherwise sufficiently protected the Bicycle against theft, embezzlement, or actual loss (for example, through careless handling of the keys), or if the damage or Total Loss is the result of improper use of the Bicycle (for example, by using the Bicycle in breach of these General Conditions); or

6.6.3. the Customer, following an actual or alleged theft, embezzlement, actual loss, or Total Loss of the Bicycle, is unable to hand in the keys, if applicable, to the Bicycle to a Rybit Brand Store.

11.1. Rybit strongly recommends that the Customer wear a safety certified bicycle helmet that has been properly sized, fitted, and fastened, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Wearing a safety certified bicycle helmet, properly sized, fitted, and fastened, while cycling may protect against an injury or may lessen the severity of an injury caused by an impact to the head; however, bicycle helmets are not 100% effective, do not protect against all head injuries, and do not protect against other injuries. RYBIT AND THE OTHER RELEASED PERSONS DO NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THE QUALITY OR SAFETY CHARACTERISTICS OF ANY HELMET, AND CUSTOMER AGREES THAT RYBIT AND THE OTHER RELEASED PERSONS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INJURY SUFFERED BY CUSTOMER WHILE RIDING A BICYCLE, WHETHER OR NOT CUSTOMER IS WEARING A HELMET AT THE TIME OF INJURY.

12. Miscellaneous Provisions

12.1. Rybit reserves the right to make any reasonable changes to the Subscription (including an increase in the Monthly Fee) in line with the consumer price index) and/or to these General Conditions.
