A brief guide to bicycle insurance

Protection against theft or damage

If your bicycle is stolen or damaged in a fall, you are covered by your household contents insurance. Helvetia offers the following options:

Bicycle theft: The “simple theft away from home” supplementary household contents insurance covers your bicycle against theft either at or away from home.
Important: The insurance will only cover a claim if your bicycle was locked.

Damage: “All risks” supplementary household contents insurance covers your bicycle against damage sustained in a fall or accident. The insurance covers the reinstatement value of the bicycle.

Cover in an accident involving other people

If, while riding your bike, you cause an accident in which other people are injured, this is covered by your private liability insurance. This insurance covers the financial losses arising from liability claims by third parties. This cover is included in the basic insurance policy, and there is no need for supplementary insurance.
