Hi All,
I'm planning to sell my bike this summer (not abandoning the hobby, just going on a trip and want to do a new build when I return), and am wondering about personal liability when it comes to the battery pack.
I will of course give all fair warnings to any potential buyer, but I know how it can go. Some dumbass will say "yeah yeah, got it" when I explain the dangers, then promptly blow themselves to pieces. Do you guys think that I, as the seller, would have any liability in this scenario? I am worried that if I write some kind of waiver up, it will dissuade potential buyers, so I do not want to go that route (we all know how hard it is to get anything close to fair value for a used ebike already).
My apologies if there is already a thread on this, but I did try to search and couldn't find really anything on this.
Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to weigh in! I'm not expecting any lawyer-type responses, maybe more just your own thoughts and experiences on this.
Cheers
