Do you insure e-bikes?

Yes, we do insure electric bikes. This includes MTB, road, Cargo, hybrid, Brompton Electric bikes and bikes with conversion kits .

An e-bike (Electrically assisted pedal cycle - EAPC) must meet certain requirements, so that it is not considered to be a motor vehicle within the meaning of the Road Traffic Act.

The requirements are that an E-bike;

• is primarily propelled by human pedal power with the assistance of an electric motor, and
• must have a maximum continuous rated power of 250 watts or under; and
• is restricted to 15.5mph or 25 km/h; and 
• is not 'twist-and-go' (electrically assisted by a throttle only) unless 'Type approved'; and
• cannot be ridden by someone under the age of 14.
