CYCLE INSURANCE VS OTHER INSURANCE

The UK government has set aside 2 billion pounds to improve bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure over the next five years. Bicycle sales have grown by 60% since March 2020, with an astonishing 92% year on year increase in E-Bike sales across the UK. With more bicycles and cyclists on the road, each rider will have to differentiate between insurance cover levels, knowing when they are covered or not. As fellow cyclists ourselves, we made it easy for you to compare our packages to other market options.

Wiggle cycle insurance compared to homeowners insurance

If you have homeowners insurance, it’s essential to know precisely what is covered and what isn’t when you are riding your bicycle. Do you know that your average homeowners’ insurance does not cover your bicycle when you are away from home? What about the damage that is caused by a crash while you’re out riding your bike? It might surprise you to know that the average homeowners’ insurance policy does not cover the damage to your bicycle and excludes personal injury and third party liability cover.

Many cyclists are happy to have their homeowners insurance cover their bikes as it’s usually inexpensive. However, don’t assume your bike is protected, as home insurers will mostly have limitations and exclusions on how you can use your bicycle. A few shortcomings of some home insurance:

  1. Low maximum cycle value
  2. No cover for theft or accidental damage when away from home.
  3. High excess payable
  4. No cover for races, sportives or participating in any event
  5. No cycle-specific benefits like taxi-fare reimbursement, replacement cycle hire and global travel cover
  6. No public liability or personal accident cover

With Wiggle cycle insurance you can cover bicycles up to £15,000 and you are covered should something happen to it when you are out riding or taking part in an event. We have a low excess of £100 and provide you with all the extra benefits like bicycle hire and taxi fare reimbursement.
