I was told that the guarantee was valid for the frame and other parts. That I should have done a service run (up to 6 weeks after buying) and paid 50 Euros. I regret so much have bought this bike as for the amount I paid I could have had a real top bicycle. I feel that I was scammed.

Thanks Ted, I would be interested to see if that was possible! The benefit for Roetz is they have access to 100s of thousands of discarded bikes in the Netherlands each year, the majority being steel frames they can work with. But I bet an enterprising group in Canada could get something rolling on a smaller scale… Cheers, dn.

Perhaps a Canadian company could start a similar process here!
