In the event of failing to return the product, the lessor may take immediate possession of the bicycle at its location, wherever this may be, and the lessee shall have no reclamation rights. Should the lessee return the rented bicycle before the agreed date, the lessor reserves the right to not reimburse the fee paid for the unused days.

Prepaid bookings can be cancelled free of charge up to 48 hours before the start of the rental period, cancellations made up to 24 hours before the start of the rental period will bear a cancellation fee of 50% of the booking fee, and any cancellations made within 24 hours will not be reimbursed.

The lessee shall return all the equipment in the same conditions that they were delivered. Any reclamations regarding the state of the bicycle must be made before accepting the rented bicycle. The cost of repairing or replacing the bicycle and/or equipment will be covered by the lessee, who shall notify the lessor of any damage thereto or the malfunctioning thereof.

6.- The lessee hereby provides the lessor with a deposit, made on a credit card or in cash, which will cover any possible damage to the bicycle or the rented equipment. This deposit shall be returned to the lessee upon the termination of the contract.

In the event of an accident, damage, loss or theft of the bicycle, the lessee shall immediately notify FREE MOTION by ringing the telephone number provided for this purpose, and shall subsequently lose all rights to request the reimbursement of the deposit, as well as reimbursement or compensation for the unenjoyed days.
