Fionadb1 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Good morning everyone Just spent 2.5k on two electric bikes, and think a good plan to insure them. Methinks no point in having insurance if you do not read the small print! All policies I have found so far, will only allow 90 day in any one trip European cover. We will be away for approx 6 months in one go.any ideas you clever people! Thanks so much Fiona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwendolyn Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 We have just insured our new electric bikes with Assetsure. The standard policy did not give us the period of cover we wanted, so they ran our requirements past the underwriters who covered us for a slightly higher premium. Phone number: 0208 0033 190. They were very helpful. Cheers, Gwen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebishbus Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Anyone wanting cycle insurance, including electric bikes, should look at what The Cyclists touring Club , ( CTC) has to offer. They do a range of individual or family memberships that include European third party cover, also 365 days cycle cover through Butterworth Spengler is available. Brian B.

Gwendolyn Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Just had a look at that. But the premium was quite a bit more than what I paid for our cover [around £50 more]. And if you add on the CTC membership it would be rather a lot more. Our insurer was able to make the adjustments to the standard policy to give us what we need.

lennyhb Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 If taking out independent bike insurance (not linked to your home policy) do check the policy carefully. Most will not cover a bike on a vehicle & if left in a public place between 11 pm & 7 am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
