nmt_oli Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Ummm, why wont E&L do trials bikes? :shifty: I was going to use them for mine! Hmm, so any other bike specific insurers out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayneone Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Im not sure if there is any. I think it would have to be a theift only one becuase if you had to clam for damages all the time your quote would be though the roof!

smelly joe Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 I think my bike is covered on my house insurance for theft. So if it gets stole from my shed garden or house i claim, not sure if i can claim if it gets stolen from elsewhere though :shifty: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 I know this is going to sound daft, but just don't let your bike out of your sight. That's what I do, there's very little possibility of it getting stolen, so here's no need to think about insurace etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deonn trials 55 Posted November 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Cheers for the help guys I think I will put it on the house insurence. Thanks Deonn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Cheers for the help guys I think I will put it on the house insurence. Thanks Deonn. You can probably get the house insurance extended to cover the bike if its not at home - as long as its locked up etc. .theres a £1000 limit on my policy if i do that but my bike's not worth that so its fine .

guineasmithpig Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 i have my student home contents insurance with Endsleigh, but they won't cover my bike, which is stored in my bedroom. And to insure it seperately will cost a new lock of specified requirements (min £80!!!!) and then still quoted £195 a year for insurance cover!? anyone know of a company that'll insure for theft, upto £1500 in or out of house, for a reasonable amount? smithy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Do they not have that leaflet for bike insurance in MBUK anymore??? They specialised in cycle insurance only, worth a try :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardie Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 My dad put my bike on his house insurance which means its insured if my bike gets stolen from his house, it is stolen when it is locked to a secure oblect e.g. lampost, or if im on it and sumone comes and steals it off me when im with it. And it was only a tenner for this. sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
