FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I really need bicycle insurance?

With a NextGen policy, your bicycle’s covered whether you’re in the house or out on a ride, it’s fully protected. The policy covers damage and theft, personal accident, public liability, cycle breakdown, accessory cover as well as keeping you protected across Europe. As well as offering cycle hire while you are without your bicycle.

Aren’t I already covered under my home insurance policy?

Your bicycle might be covered under your home insurance policy, but the cover is unlikely to meet all of your needs and could leave you without your bicycle for a considerable amount of time as home insurance claims can take a while to resolve.

 

Home insurance isn’t designed with your bicycle in mind, so is unlikely to cover you for personal accident, theft away from the home and public liability. On top of this, if you claim on your home insurance, the excess you may be required to pay could be higher than the cost of having separate bicycle insurance. It’s likely that your contents insurance premium may then increase when your policy comes to renewal because of the claim you made.

What types of bicycles are covered?

All bicycles are insured (eBikes, road bikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, track bikes, even unicycles!). Scooters and mopeds are not covered.

Is my bicycle covered while on or in a vehicle?

Theft, while your bicycle is in or on a vehicle, is only be covered in circumstances where all doors, windows and other openings are left closed, the bicycle is securely locked and properly fastened and where the theft of the bicycle is a direct result of the use of force and violence; and any security devices installed in the vehicle and cycle rack are in operation; and the cycle is stored out of sight or is secured through the frame by an approved lock to the roof or cycle rack attached to the vehicle.

 

The vehicle must have valid motor insurance, a valid MOT certificate and current road tax. All windows must be capable of being securely fastened and locks must be capable of rendering the vehicle secure.

My bike isn’t brand new, is it worth me insuring it?

Yes! Every bike is worth insuring. Pre-owned bikes can be insured so long as you can show proof of purchase.

How do I value my bicycle?
