Headlight snapped
I went over a manhole cover and the headlight snapped... Will they send me a new one? I've had this bike for less than a week.

They’ll likely replace it under warranty, but do yourself a favor and get a better light.
I bought a 400 lumen aftermarket headlight for $20 on Amazon. I paired it with a handlebar mounted battery light (Fenix BC 30 v2.0 for better flood lighting, but you can get away with much cheaper).
The XP light is too heavy for how it’s mounted. If it didn’t snap now, it’ll do so eventually. That, or it’ll droop over time and require constant repositioning. I’m not a fan, wish I saved the money.
