Electric Bike Insurance FAQs

My e-bike has more than a 250w motor or a throttle, will you still insure it?

No – with our electric bike insurance policy, we can only cover pedal-assisted electric bikes that have a maximum power output of 250 watts, are restricted to 15.5mph or 25 km/h and cannot be ridden by someone under the age of 14.

If you use a de-restrictor kit, your e-bike motor has more power as standard, or you have a button/twist & go throttle (not walk assist mode) that isn’t type approved, then your insurance will be invalid and the bike comes under the Road Traffic Act, which means tax and licensing – www.gov.uk/electric-bike-rules

If you’re not sure, get in touch with the team and we’ll confirm whether your e-bike is eligible – Contact us 

Are my e-bike’s battery and motor covered by the policy?

Yes and no – you are covered for damage sustained to your electrical drive train during an incident with a GO or PLUS Bikmo electric bike policy, including the battery, motor, gearbox and control system, in addition to theft and vandalism.

However, we don’t cover system faults resulting from electrical or mechanical failure which is not linked to an incident. These types of failures should be covered by a manufacturer’s warranty for a given period of time, normally a minimum of 12 months.

We recommend speaking with your retailer or the manufacturer directly to discuss warranty coverage, the potential for extended warranty and the extent of the coverage.

I plan on using my e-bike abroad on holiday, am I covered?

Yes – your Bikmo e-bike Insurance policy cover includes worldwide cover, 365 days a year. That includes theft or damage whilst you’re travelling and your bike is in transit (damage exclusive to GO and PLUS policies).

You’ve peace of mind with our alternative cycle hire benefit too in the event your bike is stolen or an airline trashes your bike.

You don’t even need to let us know, just go ahead and enjoy your break!

I ride carefully, do I have to have cover for accidental damage?

No – with our Electric Bike Insurance policies you have the option to choose cover that includes just theft (CLIK) or a policy that has both theft and  accidental damage (GO or PLUS).

Check out our open project to see the amount of claims made between theft and accidental damage.

I ride an electric mountain bike – can I get insured?

Yes – our Electric Bike insurance policy includes e-bikes of all disciplines, so you’re covered whether you ride trails, park, gravel or for your commute.

We even include events as standard with all policies so you’re covered if you choose to enter an e-mtb enduro. Just make sure it’s fully charged before you head for the great outdoors as they’re hard to pedal when the battery dies!

One of the most frequent questions asked is “What’s the difference between cycle specific insurance, to just adding a bike onto your home insurance policy?”
