Why Does Buying From an Authorised Retailer Matter in India?
The Indian cycling market has a significant grey market problem. Products sourced through unauthorised channels — Amazon Marketplace sellers, eBay imports, social media sellers — may be genuine products, but they carry none of the protections that authorised retail provides. According to BikeRadar's buying guides, purchasing through authorised channels is the single most important factor in long-term cycling gear satisfaction. CyclingNews similarly recommends verifying retailer authorisation before purchasing premium apparel.
| Factor | Authorised Retailer (Cobbled Climbs) | Grey Market / Unauthorised |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer warranty | Full warranty — claimed directly through retailer | No warranty. Manufacturer will not honour claims |
| Sizing | European sizing (correct for the brand). Sizing guidance via CC-360 | May be Asian parallel market sizing (runs differently). No guidance |
| Authenticity | 100% genuine. Direct from brand or authorised distributor | May be genuine, may be counterfeit. No verification |
| GST invoice | Yes — required for warranty claims and business purchases | Often absent. Cannot claim warranty without GST invoice |
| Returns/exchange | 7-day return policy. Size exchange available | No returns. Wrong size = your loss |
| After-sales support | Ongoing support via email, CC-360, and WhatsApp | No support after sale |
| Price | Brand-mandated pricing (may be 10–20% higher than grey market) | Lower price — but zero safety net |
For the detailed authorised vs grey market analysis, see our authorised vs grey market guide. Every product at Cobbled Climbs is genuine, authorised, and ships with full manufacturer warranty and GST invoice.
