With our bicycle insurance, we offer you comprehensive cover that protects you against theft and material damage to your bicycle. This comprehensive cover can be taken out for bicycles up to 3 years old, for a maximum amount of €10,000, including VAT. Accessories are included apart from easily detachable items and their holders, including but not limited to GPS, milometer, camera, etc.
You also get assistance cover when you take out the comprehensive cover.
If your bicycle does not need pedal assistance, third-party liability cover is also required by law. In that case, this is automatically included in our cover. This covers you against damage caused to third parties.
You can also always take out additional personal accident insurance.
Third-party bicycle insurance reimburses you for the cost of material damage and bodily injury (for which you are legally liable) caused by you to third parties as a result of using your bicycle.
With the legal assistance cover, the insurer will also cover the legal costs of defending you if you are held liable for such incidents. If you incur damages caused by a liable third party, then the insurer will endeavour to recover these damages.
The comprehensive cover insures you against damage caused to your bicycle.
