If like me you are unsure of this confusing task of having your bike insured, then read on.
I recently decided to contact a local company here in Perth named Bikesure to find out some more information about the process involved along with what am I covered for?
Bikesure is Australia’s newest bike insurance for the cycling enthusiast. After several years of supporting triathlon and cycling, Bikesure have developed a very competitive bike insurance package. Bikesure offers a tailored home and contents policy with specific enhancements for bikes.
Their research has shown it is alot more expensive to insure bikes separately via a stand alone bike policy, so by combining your bike cover with your home and contents insurance they can save you time and money.
The Bikesure policy has included the following cover:
- Worldwide cover (not just Aus + NZ) for up to 90 days
- Damage to bikes including whilst in use
- Theft in open air including away from the home and you do not require bikes to be locked
- Unspecified limit $10,000 for bikes
- Third party cover $20,000,000
- Racing risk – optional
- No additional excess on carbon fibre bikes
- Free jersey (made by Cannibal) with every policy
Bikesure are supporters of local cycling and triathlon events throught Australia. They are currently running a promotion where one lucky person will win a bicycle trip to Italy and all for just getting a quote. Details are available on their website or feel free to give Sue Johnston, Bikesure Account Manager a call on 08 9208 0702.
