They give their opinion

Super good price, good insurance, responsive to the slightest concerns. I recommend this insurance !

Very satisfied ! I would recommend to my worried entourage.

I am more than satisfied: attractive price, fast approach. I thank the site for simplicity.

In France, and unlike an electric bike (excluding VAE), no legal obligation forces you to ensure your bike

In addition, your home insurance has a civil liability that also covers you when you are by bike. However, this guarantee remains limited as to damage suffered and has no coverage on the flight or breakage of your equipment.

If it is therefore not compulsory to turn to specialized insurers for your road bike, It is advisable to subscribe to a dedicated formula to limit your expenses in the event of a claim. It is the same for electric bicycle insurance or cargo bicycle insurance.

You can thus adapt your guarantees according to your needs for serene trips and every moment assistance when you have to face an unexpected.

Current questions

Where and how do I park my bike to be insured ?

In any non -private place, the bicycle must imperatively be attached to a fixed point by the frame with a conforming padlock.
In a closed private space, your bike is not necessary to be attached to a fixed point, it must nevertheless be padlocked.

What correspond to the franchise and the dilapidation ?

The deductible is the amount that the insurer does not take care of in the event of a claim. It is thus deduced from your insured amount. For Sharelock, the insurance deductible is 10% of the value of the bicycle. It is lowered to 5% if you have done a photo session (up to 72 hours before the loss).

The dilapidation takes into account the age of your bike. It applies up to 1% per month and only takes effect from the 25th month from the date of purchase of the bicycle.
Before that, the amount chosen for the reimbursement in the case of a bicycle flight is the new purchase value of the latter .

For example, for a bike at € 1,200 purchased 5 months ago: in the event of a flight, you have no obsolescence and we will reimburse you 1,200 – (1,200*10%) = € 1,080
For a bicycle at € 800 bought 28 months ago: in the event of theft, you have 28% obsolescence, the bicycle therefore has a value of 800*(1 – 28%) = € 576. The deductible is 10% and we will reimburse you 576 – 57.6 = € 518.4
