1Standard LiveWire Truing Warranty: as long as the hub, spokes, and rim are undamaged, if you pay for all shipping expenses (if there are any) I will true the wheel at no charge to you.  In normal operation, you should not ever have to true the wheel, nor should you ever break a spoke.

2Profile Racing Splined Hub Warranty: The axle and cranks of your Profile setup are warranteed for life.  LiveWire will be glad to handle your claims for this kind of warranty for wheels that you purchase from LiveWire. If a wheel build is necessary, though, it is not covered by warranty.  Rebuilds usually require spoke replacement.
