What does bicycle insurance cover?
Liability
As a cyclist, you are responsible for any damage you cause to others while cycling.
Liability cover protects you from the financial consequences of third-party claims for bodily injury or property damage caused by your bike.
Depending on the type of bike, this is covered by your family insurance or a separate third-party insurance is mandatory.
Theft
Bike insurance covers the cost of replacing your bike in case of theft.
Some insurers also reimburse the cost of accessories stolen along with your bike.
Damage to bicycle
In an accident where you are at fault, you are responsible for the damage to your bike. Unless you subscribe to comprehensive insurance.
This cover protects you against the cost of repairs or replacement of your bike in case of damage due to:
- an accident
- vandalism
- fire
- other causes of damage
Your own policy will guide you better and reimburse you faster than your opponent's.
Breakdown help and assistance

Breakdown assistance and assistance covers the cost of repairing your bike locally (excluding the cost of replacement parts). In case of a serious breakdown, this policy arranges transport to a bike repair shop.
This cover is also useful if you have problems on the road, such as a flat tyre.
