As for the bike, the frame looks...odd. If it's not going to get
ridden much, as you say, there's little cause for concern...but with a
frame as perculiar as that one, I'd suggest that she use the online
registration form to log the fact of her possession of the bike with
the maker. Should the bike have already been registered to someone
else, she can then use the manufacurer as leverage to get the dealer
to own up to having sold a used bike as new. If that dealer is like
several in this area, though, the lack of docs and the rust and other
marks may just be signs of it having been on the sales floor (and
perhaps outside on the rack to catch the attention of drivers) for
more than a week or two.
As long as the warranty can be confirmed, I wouldn't worry about this
one at all.
