Position of the frame serial number

You will find the frame number of your Giant bicycle on the seat tube, under the top tube, near the bottom bracket shell (crankset housing), on the underside of the bottom bracket shell or on the left rear dropout (rear hub).

In case of difficulties, check with your Authorized Giant Dealer to determine the location of the serial number on your bicycle. Keep your proof of purchase for reference; this record will also help you with any police investigation or insurance claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you wish to start a warranty claim, please take the bicycle (along with the proof of purchase) to your local Giant retailer. All warranty work has to be through a Giant authorized retailer, so they can advise on the best course of action to getting your issue resolved.

You just need to take your proof of purchase, along with your bike, to your local Giant retailer. We’d advise contacting the retailer where you purchased the bike in the first instance.

Unfortunately, we are unable to diagnose any issues without physically inspecting the bike itself, therefore it will need to be taken to a Giant retailer in order for a warranty claim to proceed.

We always recommend contacting the retailer where you purchased the bike from as the original contract of sale is between yourself and them. However, if the original retailer is unavailable or you have moved, you may take your bicycle to the nearest Authorized Giant retailer.

No, if a warranty case is approved, we will provide replacement part/s free of charge and the needed labor.

Any components not manufactured by Giant (Such as Shimano or SRAM drivetrain parts, for example) are covered by their original manufacturer and not through Giant. You can contact your Giant retailer of purchase for assistance in the first place. Please note, warranty decisions cannot be made over the phone or via email, so the manufacturer will need to inspect the part before any decision can be made.
