BASTION CYCLES™ PTY LTD PURCHASE AGREEMENT (2021)
Agreement to Purchase
You agree to purchase the bicycle or bicycle components (the “Bicycle”) as described in “the documentation” from Bastion Cycles Pty. Ltd. ACN 604 585 640 (“we,” “us,” “our”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Your Bicycle is priced and configured based on the features and options available at the time of your order. Options or features released after you place your order may not be included in your Bicycle.
Build Number
Your unique build number will be assigned at our discretion upon issuance of the deposit invoice.
Documentation
Your Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made up of the following documents (“the documentation”):
- Quote: You will receive quotes through the purchase process. These may be in the form of an official quotation, emails, texts, telephone, and video calls. Quotes are non-binding and superseded by any invoices that follow.
- Deposit Invoice: The deposit confirms your agreement to purchase the bicycle, and these Terms & Conditions take effect the date you pay your deposit (the “Order Date”).
- Interim Invoice: The interim invoice confirms the agreed configuration of your bicycle and is equal to half the amount outstanding on the bicycle. The interim invoice will be issued prior to production or ordering of major components such as, but not limited to, the group set and wheels.
- Final Invoice: The final invoice is issued for the remaining amount outstanding on the bicycle and must be paid in full prior to the release of the bicycle.
- Drawing: Detailed description of the geometry and dimensions of your bicycle.
- Engineering Report: Detailed description of the expected performance of your bicycle.
- Paint Instruction: Illustration of the paint scheme and colors of your bicycle.
Prices, Taxes, and Fees
The purchase price of the Bicycle, as indicated in your quote(s) and invoice(s), will stipulate whether it includes Australian GST and any shipping costs. It excludes any duties, fees, and government taxes that may apply in your home country if purchasing from outside of Australia.
Cancellation or Default
Your Bicycle is custom made, and we incur significant costs in the planning, design, sourcing of components, and production of your bicycle. We also incur significant costs to remarket and resell the Bicycle in the event you cancel or default on this Agreement. Therefore, once you have paid the interim invoice your order is non-refundable.
Delivery
We will notify you of the expected delivery date of your Bicycle when your order is placed. The delivery date is subject to change at our discretion. We will make every effort to keep you informed of any changes in a timely manner.
No Resellers
We sell directly to our approved retail partners and consumers, and we may unilaterally cancel any order we reasonably believe has been made with a view towards resale of the Bicycle or that has otherwise been made in bad faith.
Waiver
A failure or delay by either party in exercising a power or right given to it under this document does not operate as a waiver of that power or right; nor does a single or partial exercise of a power or right prevent any other or further exercise of it. A waiver by a party of a power or right given to it under this document does not affect any other provision.
Disputes
If any dispute arises between us, we will attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith by negotiation. Where both of us agree that it may be beneficial, we will seek to resolve the dispute through mediation.
Force Majeure
Neither of us will be liable to the other for any delay or failure to fulfill their obligations (excluding payment obligations) under this agreement to the extent that any such delay or failure arises from causes beyond their control, including but not limited to fire, floods, acts of God, acts or regulations of any governmental or supranational authority, war, riot, terrorist activities, strikes, lockouts, lockdowns, and industrial disputes.

Limitation of Liability
Except as described herein, and to the extent permitted by law, in no event shall we or our third-party suppliers be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages.
