AkuskaUK Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hi all, This Sunday i embark on my journey to uni, i will be bringing my bike with me. Are there any insurance companies that specialise in trials bikes? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmertrials Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I am also looking for insurance. But I just want to insure my house contents as I live in the most burgled area of the uk. Anyone got any decent insurers? Assuming my bike and whatnot will all be covered too.

Revolver Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 There's no specialist trials bike insurance, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Also - specialist bike insurers are just crooks. Stick to adding it to a home insurance policy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AkuskaUK Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Can I get a home insurance if I am staying at the uni halls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmertrials Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Can I get a home insurance if I am staying at the uni halls? Your uni halls should be covered with a room policy. Mine was covered up to £15,000. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete.M Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I had contents insurance with Endsleigh throughout my time at University, which included bikes up to £400 (I think). They seemed to provide a decent service when my phone got smashed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koxxboy14 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Mines around a similar size. But just found out the halls I'm staying in has indoor bike storage so depending on how safe it is I will just put it in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Yoshi Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Mine was the same size but didnt have the worktop/desk thing. I just gave the cleaners a box of sweets at the start of term so they didnt mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 This will be like mine: Move the chair by the desk and looks like you can fit 2 or 3 easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 you could always stash it under the bed if there's room. Undo the stem and it'll go nearly flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
